    There are servo motors with encoders, but perhaps it would help if you explain what you are trying to do, particularly with respect the SMC3 wiring picture you posted, because SMC3 in its current form does not support encoders.

    The truth is that I am a university student and my graduation project is to make a simulator, and the image I am looking for is on the Internet... and I want the engine to be ready to connect without adding any modifications to it... Thanks.

    Doing some research before getting in too deep is time well spent.

    You will find plenty of helpful information in the FAQs, including possible controllers for AMC-AASD15A servos, and a design section: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/

    You can use the Search on the Recent page to find similar projects as to what you have in mind.

    Bounce your plans and shopping list off members before jumping too far down what can be an expensive rabbit hole, if you get it wrong.

    If something sounds odd then look it up in the glossary: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/glossary-of-acronyms-and-names.66/

    When you are ready please start your own project thread here and detail your project, so members can give support and advice where possible: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/forums/diy-motion-simulator-projects.22/
