Servo question....

Hello,

I have a somewhat newbie question for you. I have about six servos
that run on 4.8V each. I want to run them off a power supply.
Hooking each servo up in parallel with the supply is no problem since
I know that each will recieve 4.8V. The question I have is, how do I
insure that each servo is getting the proper current in different
situations? Ex. Servo 1 thru 3 are running and Servo 4 thru 6 are
off. Or maybe when just one servo is running and the rest are off.

Thank you,
Frank G.
