RE: 9CAP Servo test
There is no problem, however, I would not want to put my servos through that much wear and tear.
A battery discharger is a lot cheaper than 4 or 5 servos !
You can make a cheap discharger with a 6 volt flashlight lamp but you will need to monitor the voltage so it doesn't drop below 0.9 volts per cell.
What ever you use to discharge the batteries, they should not be dropped to zero volts as this can harm the cells.

I use this function with a 1400maH pack to determing the actual pack size I need for 1 hour of flight time. I want to get 6 - 10 minute flights so I need to size my packs to run my planes for 75 minutes min. (6 flights and 15 minutes extra)

Bill this is very true.
I use the DSC cable with a 149DP but if you TX mit, then take the necessary precautions!

Don't forget to extend your transmitter antenna when you do this so you don't damage your 9C's module.
