Not to open an old post, but I am working on a turbinator and will be using straight SBUS with one receiver, but I would like to have redundant batter packs. Any idea how to set this up?
Just plug the other pack into a hub. I have 14+ servos on my skymaster Mig with sbus. One wire going to the back that breaks into two 4 way hubs. Each one has power going to it via fromeco regulator and A123 pack. Then the same up front directly into RX. So two packs, but 3 power sources into the system. The pack that does the back addresses the four vectored thrust nozzles, elevator and rudders. The front pack does ailerons, flaps and runs all the valves.
I have 8 servos on my bobcat with one pack. All sbus servos, highest torque I could fit in the spaces. Works great, super clean install.
I would love for Futaba (or an EE) to explain how adding packs to a hub disperses the power....
