Default RE: Extreme Flight 87" Yak 54 - Build & Fly

I would not worry about that. Just use the smallest extension you can. Are you running the pipe? If so, you need to mount the regulator up front.

OK, I have a question for your guys on batteries, regulators, and switch setups.

I just ordered a setup from Fromeco, and I am happy with the quality of these products so far. Now, my question is that I ordered the reliaswitches, which are regulators and switches built into one, but they recommend that the packs be unplugged if not used for several day periods of time. OK, that is fine, but getting under the cowl to unplug the packs could be a pain. Can I run extensions from the batteries back to the reliaswitches (lets say I locate them in front of the rudder servo), and then connect them to the reliaswitches? Will I have a voltage drop resulting from the extensions that could cause issues?

Thanks
Jon
