Status: offline 		I have not seen this anywhere, but according to i4C this is an option for the C Volt. Instead of buying (and using) 3 separate C Volts in a plane (one each for servo, receiver, and glow starter) why not use one C Volt and switch between inputs? Has anyone done this successfully, and if so what switch did you use. Today I went to Radio Shack looking for something but no joy. I will surf and see what turns up but in the meantime if anyone has set this up already please let me know how you did it. By the way, this also avoids cutting three ugly holes in the side of your plane!

With one battery, you need one C-Volt.

Plug it into an unused socket on your receiver and it will tell you the voltage of your battery.

It does not monitor each servo, each accessory, etc.

Two batteries? Two C-Volts.

Forget about the switch. Something else to go wrong.
