I kinda blew my $2000 budget with the brakes and the UK stuff

This brings me to my question; where do I pluug in the voltwatch2[link=http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&W=000717255&I=LXHDJ2&P=K]Voltwatch 2[/link] if I use a seperate servo for the front brakes(kinda the whole point of using the 3pk-Brake mixing) then where do I plug in the Voltwatch? Do I have to buy a 4channel reciever? Can I piggy back? Am I looking at this all wrong?

Please advise

use a "Y" lead. Because the voltwatch is passive you will have no problems piggybacking it

That Venom voltmeter, failsafe, temp gauge,etc etc thing is awesome.

All it has to do is learn how to cook an Egg McMuffin and it will be perfect!
