Does anyone have RC Servo Test for a Mesa card setup similar to this older tutorial?
RC Servo Test
I tried using MesaCT and the only PWM output was the spindle, so I tried that. I get an error something like SERVO_0 unknown. So Im probably not setting the PWM channel correctly.
My PWM channel is on the BOB connected to P1 on the 7i96s. Any help is appreciated.

Since that example was written a dedicated RC servo PWM component has been added to the Mesa firmware. You could try seeing if there is a suitable firmware for your card.
(Though having had a look in the downloadable firmware, I haven't spotted one)
Making a normal pwmgen look like an RC pwmgen is just a case of setting the max duty cycle to be only 1ms in 20ms (IIRC) and with a minimum duty cycle too. This might take a bit of hand-fettling of the HAL files.
