Good inputs you two. That’s what RCU is for.
- A battery packs value should always be determined by its discharge characteristics which could lead to lose of control and not its storage characteristics which are basically useless for RC.
- How are you guys measuring your batteries capacity and the capacity you need for the flights you have taken. Don’t forget, if you are using a cutoff voltage less than 3 or3.1 volts you are already picking up the pieces.
- The OP is using a servo rated at 6 volts. A LiFe pack voltage is 6.6 volts steady state. Maybe his receiver is also rated at six volts. The over voltage condition could be disastrous. Reducing the voltage by using a regulator would add another single point failure and we already have enough of them.
