I think I have enough to get me started now tho.

Bit confused about the signal its putting out, looking at the scope I can see what I need to do but using the pulsin data its kinda jumpy.

I have done the standard servos like mentioned above 1-2 ms constant freq but this signal is not a constant freq it seems. On the scope it looks like the width and freq changes.

Standard servo I don't remember the exacts but like 100 to 225 or something that would be the pulse width.
Can you explain what I should be reading on the pulsin when the freq changes?
The frequency isn't changing, although it might look like it is changing based on what the rest of the servo's are doing. In other words, say you've got 4 servos...1-3 are all at one end with a pulse width of 1ms and the 4th servo is the one you're playing with. It'll look like one thing on the 'scope. Then if servo's 1-3 go to the other extreme at 2ms, the signal off the 4th servo will look like something else on the 'scope.

It might be a bit jumpy because the input frequency is 'only' 50hz or so, and it's supposed to vary a little bit. Play around with your trigger and 'sweep delay' if you have one on your 'scope. You should be able to get it to smooth out. I've got a Tek 2246A, 4 channel 'scope, I can plug 4 servo's into it at once and be able to see the pulse's on all 4 and they are all steady. But, I have to play with the trigger and sweep delay a bit before they steady out.
