STG, I wish I had the patience to explain it to you but I don't. Sorry. This string is about the Showtime, not basic electronic theory so I think its time it got back to the plane.
I agree it is about the Showtime.
It is the speed and the torque they are both relative, You will not be putting the same load on the servos, even if you do the exact same manuver with the exact same stick movement.
Servos have a 4.8 volt and a 6 volt rating, the 6 volt rating is higher and faster, where do you think the extra speed and torque can come from? Its not free, it comes from increased current draw.
I really don't know how to explain it better so maybe someone else can.
No it is not free, but how much does it cost if you don't use it?
Please answer this one simple question just yes or no and I will not say any more.
I have a servo that needs to hold for 30 seconds at 70oz of torque. One is on a 4.8volt battery and one is on a 6.0 volt battery. There is an amp meter in line, will it draw more amps with the 6.0v(5 cell) volt battery at 70oz than with the 4.8v battery?
Thanks.
