Hello,
I too use the Futaba R617FS. I am going to be building a .40 size plane with digital servos. Probably more an exercise on how to do it but I was going so I can scale it up for larger planes. I am planning on a life for the Rx with only the white wire from the servos goin to the Rx. The white and red wires from the servos will go to a seperate larger life. This is purely to eliminate the current going through the Rx.

Basically white servo wires from each servo going to a corresponding Rx channel. Connect all the black servo wires to the neg terminal and all the red terminal wires to the positive?

I havent even tried this so it's a bit cheeky asking for advise but is it as simple as that?!

Thanks
