Can these servos run at 12V and unlock the 30kg.cm torque rating on the feetech website?

Hey Cody,

Welcome to the Forums! I cant see anywhere with Feetech where it shows this being used at 12V, could you provide a link to where you may have seen that one?

I would assume overvolting this servo by that much would cause a massive risk of damage, it wouldn’t be something I would recommend. May be worth going with a more capable servo that matches your project needs.

Cheers,  
Blayden

Hi Blayden,

I found this link on the STS3215 showing it Can do 12V at 30kg.cm. I have also red online from red rabbit robotics saying that the sts3215 servos can run at 12V. [https://www.feetechrc.com/525603.html](https://www.feetechrc.com/525603.html).  
Thank you.

Kind Regards,

Cody

Hi @Cody201764 ,

The Specs linked are for a different model of servo that is designed for 4-14V.  
Its Model number is ST-3215-C018 compared to STS3215

These are the actual specifications of[the STS3215 Servo are here.](https://www.feetechrc.com/74v-19-kgcm-plastic-case-metal-tooth-magnetic-code-double-axis-ttl-series-steering-gear.html)

If you do need a +30Kg.cm servo we do have some such as this one available:

> **[FT5330M - Aluminium Servo with metal horn (35kg/cm)](https://core-electronics.com.au/feetech-ft5330m-aluminium-servo-35kg-cm.html)**
>
> A seriously strong servo, perfect for large robots, RC cars, planes and anything that needs something moved.
