I am thinking about using Servos for my GSCE electronic project, but before I buy one, I want to make sure it works how I want it to. Does it stay rigid when its Power supply is switched off or does it do somthing else?

Unless there is some kind of lock in it which is unusual, once you relinquish control, it's basically a motor with no voltage on it. It's free to move.

The output shaft of the servo is capable of travelling somewhere around 180 degrees. Usually, its somewhere in the 210 degree range, but it varies by manufacturer. A normal servo is used to control an angular motion of between 0 and 180 degrees. A normal servo is mechanically not capable of turning any farther due to a mechanical stop built on to the main output gear

Without holding power, I believe it just goes limp. Technical phrase, there.
