Default RE: Sirius Quad Charger & Common Ground?


ORIGINAL: niteman

Hi Joe,

I've Read Red's advice many times, good stuff. However, "redundancy" is in case of 1 rx pack failing (catastrophic failure), right ??
Yep..

BUT this is pretty rare..If you are checking your packs before AND after each flight the chances of that happening are pretty slim..Its more likely that a switch will fail before the pack..If you are really concerned about that SmartFly sells a Batshare device that will prevent the pack that failed from draining the second one...
