You can power the servo from an external 6V source, but you'd have to
connect the ground of the power source to your BBBlue or the servo will not
work right. ie. The ground going to the servo, still needs to connect to
the ground pin on the BBBlue servo output header.
You can see an example
Would it be possible to wire a Powerout with 6V from a power-socket
directly to the servo, and not connect the middle pin to the
servo-connector?

Seems that the servos are powered by the batteries, which might make sense to
supply enough amps.
Anyway, is there a way to power the servos with another source?
