So I guess RC servos/motors are regular servo motors and DC motors that
have been stripped from RC cars? Are they any diferent from regular
servo/DC motors? If not, then why lable them as "RC"? Since the RF
component isn't there anymore...  :-/

(...) Well, that's partially correct. The RC cars usually have a speed control/ steering module that incorporates the RF receiver. This module supplies PWM signals to the drive motor and also controls a steering servomotor. Marco A.A. de Oliveira (...) (29 years ago, 11-Nov-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
