Since were on a weight savings plan let me ask this question then. Would a Lithium Ion 7.4v pack that is built with 18 awg leads and Deans connectors to a power expander power 5 flight surfaces on digitals (rudder on a 5995 tg pull pull)? Use a Lion on regulator for the ignition as well.
This would drop your weight down as well as simplify setup, would not have to have but 1 pack, one regulator, power expander has a switch already. Thoughts????
If this would work then I think one could keep the weight under 16 fairly easily.
