High there, I wonder if I should mount a high current switch in my Super Reaper (145 N thrust = 32 lbs, 15 kg), with 6 digital servos. (2 pcs Hitech 5945 and 4 pcs. Robbe F250T). Maximum current when ALL are blocked (on 4 cells) = 2 x 1.8 A + 4*0.7A = 6.4 Amperes.

My supply is 4 cells 1400 AE sanyo, which easily delivers 6.4 A, but my concern is the standard switch, will it be sufficient for peak current of 6.4 A?

I change to larger leads, and connectors (if any) between accu and switch, and larger leads between switch and receiver, but the Futaba receiver still has standard tiny connector for accu connection… I don’t want to solder the leads directly into the receiver, do I??
