After getting used to my new 3d printer, I decided to print some new upgrades to improve my robot. All was good, until I left the servos powered on while I mount the new L brackets. Because I leaned the robot on its right shoulder as I install the new parts, I must have pushed against the servo too hard, and it started smoking. It's dead, burning, and smelly now....

Conclusion: once you find the "reset" position of a servo, turn it off!
