I see it's spec's at 42 oz - in. As is ft/lbs, are we talking the nutz to move 42 oz 1 inch? That doesn't seem very flimsy...right? What is the operating temperature range? What's gonna happen when we go to operate the servo one morning when it's 10 degrees outside?

Finally, describe to me how this little setup is powered.

Thanks for taking this time. I goofed with model aiplanes and boats when I was a kid. It still intrigues me.
