Thanks for clarifying -- and good advice. I was a little worried, reading into your comment and seeing all of the new SBUS, CPPM, I-BUS stuff on the market during my initial research, that I feared that I was also facing at a wholesale servo swap-out on top of receivers and Rx battery packs. I've done a lot more research now and see that the good ol' fashioned PWM servo interface is still around and available in receivers that work with the new radios.
