Status: offline 		How many regulators for flight system, one for each battery? How many switches for the flight system, one for each battery?

It's irrelevant but who offers 2350mAh lithium-ion flight packs?

Sounds like the servo is damaged, I'd suggest returning all the servos to Hitec Service for post crash inspection.

Status: offline 		I've got 5 5955/v1.04 going in a 34% extra that should be ready in a couple of weeks, I am going to run them straight out of the box and I've read somewhere that there are problems with the v1.04. Anybody else having problems with these?

Status: offline 		There are NO problems with the servos unless you want to drive two with a wye and a single channel source using Futaba PCM... In this scenario the Futaba RX is unable to provide adequate sink current to drive two servo form a single channel. Hitec realized the shortcoming and later updated components to accommodate the use with multiples and Futaba PCM. While the servos will work fine out of the box, if you feel the need Hitec Service will update the servos free of charge.
