The servos we are using in the follower arms are capable of generating about 3 Nm of peak torque. This isn’t a lot of torque, and they can’t move very fast. If absolute safety is your top priority, you could opt for servos that use 7.4V and a low gear ratio, which would further limit their torque output. The consequence is that the arm will be significantly weaker.
