Hey All,<br /> I'm using a servo to operate a mouth in a puppet with a fiberglass head.<br />Unfortunately, the fiberglass, (or any hard substance for that matter), acts as a resonating board and the servo operation is noisy.<br />   I've mounted my Futaba S3101 mini servo in a bit of silicone to help dampen the sound of the servo operation, but, it's still louder then I want it.<br />Does anyone know of any manufacturer or type of 'mini' servo that is relatively silent?<br />Yes I know about pneumatics, but, I can't go there right now.<br />I'm looking for a &quot;silent&quot; 4.8v-6V &quot;off the shelf&quot; mini servo.<br />I've heard about packing the servo case with vaseline.. <br />Anyone with any ideas?<br />Thanks!<br />Dave<p>Statistics: Posted by <a href="http://forum.robosavvy.com/memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&amp;u=82">dstrass</a> — Fri Dec 12, 2008 5:38 pm</p><hr />
