Servos only do what the transmitter tels them what to do. If you put a servo on a self centering stick the servo will also be self centering. 2 stick radios usually have one stick that is not self centering in one direction so it can easily be used as a throttle. Mode 1 transmitters have it on the right and mode 2 have it on the left. You can also get one that has both sticks non centering. Most radios sold in America are mode 2 but you can order either. Most higher end transmitters have dials, sliders or both, these can be used to make a servo go to any position and stop where you leave it.

Do servos automaticaly reset back to a neutral position everytime, or are there models that remain in place? ie. when I elevate my barrel will it stay in place or will it automaticly lower back down? I know it's a silly a question, but my RC experience may acttualy be at the negitive spectrum end. Any recomendations on where to get and what servo to get for my marker elevator? I understand that many also recomend a door actuator over a sevro for the trigger depressor. Any input would be welcome. Thank you.
