360 degrees Robot Servo for vectored thrust - limiting the throw?

Hey. I found that some people are using RDS 3115 Robot Servo or similar for vectored thrust for tailsitters/bellysitters. But since it’s 360 deg. robot servo PWM dictates the speed, not the amount of movement. Is there some kind of workaround with Ardupilot software for this ? Can I set it up so it rotates by the programmed amount and doesn’t go beyond the desired angle ?

No, you can get ‘normal’ versions of it tho I think.

A 360° or 1T servo is using position control like other RC servos. They are not continuous rotation servos.
The RDS3115MG is advertised as a 180° or 270° digital servo. The different numbers are a result of copy and paste product descriptions in chinese shops, I guess. It uses position control and is not a continuous rotation servo.
