Purpose:
I wanted to build a compact device for testing and setting the position for RC servos. This device is pretty simple and cheap to make. If you use the generic version of these components you should be able to build this for < $10.
I particularly like how the analog "speedometer" dial turned out for showing the servo position.

Materials:
-Arduino Nano
-Adafruit SSD1306 0.96" OLED display (or generic version)
-10k potentiometer
-male header pins x3
-M3 screws
-wires (I used 22 gauge braided with silicone insulation, easy to bend into position, even smaller might be better)
Special Tools needed:
-M3 tap
-soldering iron
Printing Notes:
-Both upper and lower case parts are in the same file.
-If you use the .3mf file, in some slicers (Prusa slicer) both components are overlapping when added into your build area. Just do an auto-arrange and they'll separate.
-Be sure to orient the case parts so the "top" and "bottom" of the ca
