I’m a beginner just started my first helmet and the servo arms aren’t at the correct angle. I’m using mg90s and the code from the video itself on franks helmet. I’m looking through the code for it I can’t find anything to adjust the angles can anyone help me out??

Left the leds to show when it is off and on but either way the angle is WAY off I tried to see if I flipped them around if it would be the correct angle but it isn’t

can't you detach the servo arms and reposition them in the correct place when the servos are in the off position?

If your servos do a full 360° then you have the wrong servos. You need servos that only go 180°.

I have plastic gear servos but I was told they aren’t reliable. And can slip easier. But I can replace them with those and see if they work. I thought it was the coding itself telling the service to stop at a specific angle so I used the metal servo. But I’ll definitely give it a try I know those only do 180 degrees
