batdog,

Read the "Parallel Operation = Reliability & Flight Time" in the link I have provided above.



There are visual and audible alarms offered by Tower:

The second one saved one of my planes that developed an electric problem in the air, which was associated to vibrations.

Since then, I check my Voltwatch's lights while moving the sticks and with the engine running.
