Thank you for the replies.
Will the 12120 regulate servo voltage? My 8711s are original style and not HV.

I did not get the switch with the bird, but I did get the PB. I downloaded the RX manual today and saw that the switch is special. The smallest wire in my battery lead extensions are 14 ga and its 12 ga on the battery itself. I have them pushed forward for CG.
I just hooked up the PB per the manual with a 2 cell Lipo on each input line and the RX lines as line 1 and 2.
For the battery in position 2, the backup on the PB, I made a Y extension to power my smoke pump which is brushless with an external ESC. I pulled the power lead out of the control line as it has a BEC to keep the 7.4 back feed out.

I will try to review the RX manual as I also need to set the failsafes especially turbine shutdown.

What TX do "yall" use? I have a GEN1 DX18. Met a HH rep at MS Afterburner and he recommended doing all the software upgrades.

Thank you
Charles
