Default Digital Servo / Battery Question

Danny ,

I have been flying a .90 size pattern ship with 4131's on ailerons and elevator,
a 4721 on rudder , and a 3021 on throttle and using a 1100 mah receiver battery
pack (6 volt). My new ship has all digitals , 8411sa's on all flying surfaces and a
3421sa on throttle. Is the 1100 mah battery still OK or would you recommend
something with more capacity ?


Thanks
Tommy S

Default RE: Digital Servo / Battery Question

To get the same amount of flying time per charge with an equal number of servos you would need to go to a slightly larger pack. Digital servos do draw more current than analog servos. An 1100 mah pack will work fine, assuming the number of servos is around 5 or 6 servos. But to get more flights per charge you'll want to increase the mah capacity.
