Dear all,
I used to have servo issues and it is quite possible I will have them again and now I will have a software solution.
However, the way I dealt with the problems up until now was design and order a PCB. Good ground plane, decoupling where needed and careful routing of traces eliminated the servo twitching problem that I almost always have on the breadboard. Also, as noted above, particular servo does matter. I have not tried any expensive or let alone digital servos, but there are cheap servos and cheap servos. Since manufacturers and brands from certain big country come and go and it is unlikely you can buy the same product next year and even if you manage, it is likely made of different components, it does not pay to name or remember which works and which does not, but keeping a few different servos around normally works.
Good luck to all,
Edmunds
