Default RE: YS-170CDI Flight Report


Ryan,

ORIGINAL: Ryan Smith

I haven't had any trouble whatsoever in 35 flights or so running my igntion directly into an R921 with 12X transmitter in my Partner.
I've got a few questions. I'm running a JR 12x system with a 9 channel receiver (same setup as yours). Got the DZ170 CDI but have not flown it yet.

Questions:

(a) what battery do you run and what is it's capacity?

(b) Also, I presume you are using regulator. If so, what regulator are you using. Is it OK to use a 6V regulator or is a 5.7 Volt regulator (like the Jaccio 5.7V regulator) recommended. The range for the ignition voltage is 4.8V to 6V but I was wondering if feeding it 6V continuously is safe.

Thanks,

Atul
