Default RE: FUTABA Telemetry

I don't get all of the negativity towards telemetry. It's just a source of information that can help you maintain your plane. The low voltage warning on my aurora 9 is invaluable in my opinion. These new 2.4 receivers shut down at a certain voltage, so it is extremely important that you do not get close to that voltage while flying. You can say what you want about maintaining batteries, etc...... But do you have a "real time" understanding of the load that you servos are putting on a battery? 10 digital servos might be sagging your battery down a bit more than your 4 channel trainer. Also, if telemetry wasn't valuable....they wouldnt need it in in the real ones. Just my 2 cents.
