I saw an article for beginners today that recommended this battery pack formula as a STARTING point...
Battery Pack capacity needed on plane = 1000mAh + ( 250mA * Number of Servos used in Plane ).
That is more realistic.
that makes lots of sense to me. Had not seen that formula before. I normally use 2500mAh in both tx and rx. The only 4.8v I use is for the ignition on my gasser. It is also a 2500mAh
