Default RE: Throttle Spring vs Servo Current

Truckracer,
  Thanks for taking the time to conduct that test as well as posting that graph as we all know how hard that can be.
  Great info. I honestly would have thought the servos would have drawn a little more current than that, not a lot but a little more. i was thinking around 100ma range thereabouts.
  I have not subscribed for a long time now about disconnecting that spring but I remember back around 1990 when I got my first G38 I did disconnect that spring and removed it as it seemed very stiff. When you would push it  full throttle and let go it would SLAM back closed really hard. At that time I was the only one at my club who had a gas engine and didn't have anyone else to comment on it. Also at that time only running 4.8v packs as well. I sure don't run that voltage these days.
  Thanks again. I hope people will read you results but you know......   They will have to SEARCH.....  So maybe not.
