interesting- I was out flying yesterday with my mate - he was practicing for the forthcoming F3d w/c in Australia......before going flying he had the ailerons fail- everything else worked except them. it so transpired to be a faulty Y lead- he runs two wing servos. It had us thinking- what was different to previous sessions? We pulled the Y lead apart and for some unknown reason there was a 'chip' in the lead....never seen one there before. I had given him out of my F3d model a LiFe battery which he had installed just prior to departing to the field. Yes, had the 'chip' burnt out on the 6.6 volts?.....we haven't yet assessed that , but one wonders whether the chip has a maximum of 6 volts.....perhaps even only 4.8?
The lead he tells me came with a HITEC 2.4 GHz radio.He had been in the past using Lipos and a 6 volt regulator without any apparent problems Can anyone solve this problem for us? TH
