i had a revelation this evening, and i think i may have screwed up. my plan was to install 2 r148dp receivers in my 35% carden extra. here was the setup:3
rx 1
1 - right aileron 1
2 -
3 - throttle
4 - rudder
5 - right aileron 2
6 -
7 -
8 - left elevator
rx 2
1 -
2 - right elevator
3 -
4 - rudder
5 -
6 - left aileron 1
7 - left aileron 2
8 -
the empty slots are open and can be used for batts.
i had planned on plugging all 4 aileron servos into the rxs and then mixing them together for the right and left sides. should i use a matchbox instead?? i was told its pretty easy to use 2 aileron servos per surface mixed with basic center and endpoint adjustments.
the rudder is a pull-pull using a swb self adjusting tray, so i can plug both those into ch4 without worrying about adjustments.
SO, the question is where do i plug in my choke servo??? should i have bought 149dp's instead??
thanks,
tony
Well to truly have a dual receiver system, they should be redundant. But with this setup, if one fails, then you only have controls on half the airplane, and to me that is a false sense of security.
With two receivers, you should be able to retain control on everything if and when you lose a receiver either with a bad crystall or for battery power.
And guess what, I know how to do that.
