Kim, thats the Robbe 2018 battery backer. Not sure why its not more popular here. The big deal with this one... You have a heavy gauge lead going out from it, and you can program either sbus or regular servos with some software and plug the servo into the lead anywhere you want. Makes installs super clean. So, you have four of these leads and then 8 channels to plug directly into the box. It will take any battery, and push out four different voltages. The CARF P-47 I bought came with one, and then I've bought two more on RCU that people decided not to use. The little nodes are expensive, but I love the flexibility it offers. Its a little easier to setup than a power box IMO, once you figure out the computer stuff. Now that power box has some sbus options, I'll probably use them more.

One plug in for each wing, makes it hard to get plugs mixed up ;-)
