We stock now 6 types of Analog Servo drive motors https://www.olimex.com/Products/RobotParts/ServoMotors/
The motor parameters are encoded in their names:
MS-1.3-9 means – Servo-Motor with 1.3 kg.cm force and 9 gram weight.
MS-R-1.3-9 means Servo-Motor with 360 degree angle and 1.3 kg.cm force and 9 gram weight.
All servo motors came with various exchangable plastic arms:
Separately are available aluminum ARMs which can snap to the bigger 3.2 kg.cm and 6 kg.cm motors, these are so powerful than can open and close drawers.
Adruino have special library for servo drive just notice that the normal servos will accept angle between 0 and 120 degree only, while the R type will accept from 0 to 360 degree.
The demo code is on GitHub: https://github.com/OLIMEX/DUINO/tree/master/AVR/SERVO
You can see the code running on this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OdH7dr4Aa30

Do you think you’ll release the schematic of the motor driver soon?
May 26, 2013 @ 16:05:27
the schematic is explained in the video, did you watch it?
May 26, 2013 @ 17:20:25
Yes I did. The video explains how to connect the servos to driver, but it did not show the parts necessary to build your own driver shield.

you do not need driver shield, connect the servo control pin directly to Arduino Digital pins!
