Controlling servo speed

What's the best approach for increasing the speed of a servo? I know increasing the STEP value works to a certain extent but then it tends to make the servo choppy, should the PAUSE time between steps be decreased? If so, how short can that be before it causes other problems?

You'll have to experiment. At some point you'll run up against the maximum speed of the servo's motor.

Funny... today I was working on my Propeller servo object as I have a visit with a major amusement park tomorrow that has recently adopted the HC-8+ for servo animatronics.
