Default RE: Who connects servos straight to their Futaba 6014rx ??

Dan,

One 1/4 scale Bearcat, one Yellow Texan, one Yellow P-40, one Reaction 54 jet. All have servos connected direct to the 6014 except: 1) the Bearcat where I used a Smart Fly Power Expander unit because I had some old JR servos in the wing that jittered with the low voltage, plus I liked the addition of redundant power 2) the Reaction 54 jet has all serovs direct, using electrodynamics amplified buffer for the ECU.

No Y-connectors on any of them (why, when you have enough channels?), a mix of JR, Fut and Hitec servos. No issues in literally hundreds of flights, including many fly-ins and Pro Am competition at Top Gun.
