I am using A123 at 2300ma each. My radio failsafe is set to completely shut down the throttle. If i had a power falure it would have been both batterys and no control of the plane. I also use a data logger. When the engine went down I always had complete control of the plane.
Thank you for your advice but the radio have been gone thru and everything is working.
What drove me nuts was I couldn't get it to act up on the ground. So now I'm waiting for a carb kit.
I'll post the results when i fly again. Dennis
OK, good luck with the carb kit. I believe the radio failsafe is for a loss of signal from the radio to the Rx. The failsafe I'm talking about is the Rx's reaction to a low voltage condition onboard the plane. It has nothing to do with the transmitter. When this happens you maintain control because it's the Rx that has shed the throttle channel in order to preserve the other channels like an ESC with BEC does.
If you're using a data logger then you know that you didn't have a low voltage condition and that should be the end of that suggestion.
