The second iteration saw us replace the MG995 servo with a more powerful, and apparently more reliable, HD-1501MG. This yielded a 50% increase in torque.
Special thanks to the good people at Banana Robotics (bananarobotics.com) for helping us with the servos and getting them to us so quickly.
We also disengaged the gear shift cable from the shifters, resulting in a single-ended design where the cable terminated at the servo pin.
Overall, we we able to achieve greater actuation of the cable, but not enough as we still failed to shift the gears.
