RE: Smart Fly PE Results
I also use a PE with one of my AR7000 mostly to cleanup the installation and also freeup a channel or two. I like the results and will probably use it more in future setups. I think the alternate to your rudder power problem would have been to wye in one of the battery leads beween the rudder and reciever. The reciever wouldn't care and the rudder servo would see very close to full battery voltage. Bet the final power consumption would be very close to the PE results.
