RE: FAAST and Hitec servos
I just got my first plane in the air using the R6014FS receiver and 5 Hitec 5955's plus two smaller servos for throttle and choke. I was impressed how well it all worked. Previously I ran 12 new 5955 servos all at once directly in the receiver and it all worked flawlessly. But I went ahead and used the power expander to avoid running high current through the receiver power bus. I would have done that regardless on any receiver running a bunch of 5955's. Thanks Futaba! I wouldn't trade my 12Z for anything now. Well not another brand transmitter at least. I'm thinking 14MZ next.
