Default RE: Throttle servos frying - cause unknown

In any case I think we have a cause for the servo failures.

The receiver, a Futaba R6008HS, was in HS mode the whole time. None of the other servos were bothered by that, but the original Futaba throttle servo and the spare test JR DS821 could not play nice with HS mode and offed themselves out of spite.

I have just changed the receiver to normal mode. This is an IMAC place and normal mode will be fine.

However...

Given the chart in the previous post the question still niggling at me is, why is channel 3 putting out such high voltages in tests 15 to 18?
