got more servos in!
got em screwed to the breadboard and wired them up, used a 6v lantern battery for their voltage, using the picaxe 14m starter kit with 3 1.5v batteries for the rest.
I have 5 servos tied to the outputs 1-5 then wrote a little program to twiddle them one at a time.
servos 3-5 dont work
checked my wiring, checked my program, checked my wiring again. still no dice. altered the program to run just servo 1, no problem, servo 2 alone no problem, servo 3 no dice.
looking at the manual I see that outputs 3-5 can also be configured for other things, do I need to force the outputs for use on servos? says the default should work.
to force it to run only one sevro, I remarked out the for next loop and set symbol whichservo=b3 to 1,2,3,etc
time to dig out the 7805's and start building the other circuits while I await replies

Code:
symbol whichservo=b3
start:
for whichservo=1 to 5
servo whichservo,75
wait 1
servo whichservo,center
wait 1
servo whichservo,220
wait 1
low whichservo
next whichservo
