Hello.

I am sorry you are having trouble with the Mini Maestro 12 servo controller. If you are wondering where to connect power, please check the “Mini Maestro Pinout and Components” section of the Maestro User’s Guide. The diagrams there label where the servo power connection is. If you need more help, please provide more details and read the General Advice for Getting Help post.
