Default RE: ONE RECEIVER OR TWO??

ORIGINAL: Doug Cronkhite

Actually.. a stalled 8611 will generally pull around 2.75 amps until it burns out. So 10 of them could possibly be capable of roughly 27.5 amps if you could somehow manage to stall all of them at the same instant. JR receivers are quite capable of handling up to 60 amps in bursts (although I don't recommend trying it) so the receiver seeing high current isn't an issue.

this may sound dumb but does this mean that if you had a 2750ma battery and a fully stalled 8611, that it would take an hour to run down the battery?

or am i mistaken about how amps and stuff work?

could someone fill me in?
