Default Checking Voltage on Fromeco Regulator

Can someone tell me how to check the voltage coming out of a Fromeco regulator? I know how to change the voltage using the two pins on the side. I'm just not sure how to check the voltage it is being regulated down to. Right now I have the 2600 lithium battery and the regulator plugged into a switch.

Thanks in advance,
Keith

One other thing I should mention is that the other wire coming out of the regulator I am wanting to check has been soldered to the wire going to the ignition for a DA 50.

I have a H9 inline volt/amp meter.

I use that the same way. You plug it inline from the reg to the RX and it will tell you. Handy device for setting up servos as well

plug a voltmeter on the other end of the reg and turn the switch on if you have already connected it to one. the voltage u see on that end is what you have regulated it to....[8D]
