    Yes, You can change "digital" ( lol ) servo electronics for an analogic "old" one.

    Yes you can find some DIY digital electronics on the Web ... but it doesn't seem to be what you intend to do ...


    But you won't get any advantage in such rebuilt ... a "HongKong" servo always will stay " no so good " ...
    And it' somewhat funny to adjust the amplifier parameters to the mechanics !!!

    Have fun

    Tank you for the reply!
    I try to clarify.
    I want to rebuild a digital servo so that it can turn 360 degrees (not make it analog ) , rotate continuously that is. The servo that i already rebuilt was a "analog" type. The procedure to make it spin was to remove a pot and repalce it with two resistors and also a gear had to be modified.
    My question is if a "digital" type servo can be rebuilt in the same way? Does it also use a pot to "read" its current position?
