Default Regulator-Switch

I don't know about you guys, but, I've had a serious problem with my Hawk.
I 'm using 2 Li-Magn in my systems, and after the maisen flioght, the 2
flap servos frozed. I took them off, and found them useless, in spite they are
JR and rated to 6 volts also. Any ideas, suggestions????

Thinking of installing Duralite regulator switches.

Thanks;

Hector

Hi Hector,<div></div><div>Personally, I have used the MPI Regulator Switch MK2 (I think) for a while now and never had any issues with them.</div><div>I've used the 2 cell LiPo Batteries as well as 2 cell LiOn batteries and they work great.</div><div>If anything goes wrong with the switch they default to ON. From the factory they are set at 5.5v (I may be out by a little here but I think it is close to this) and can be changed if needed.</div><div></div><div>Just my 2 cents worth (Or maybe 1 cent in this economy)</div><div></div><div>George</div>

a LiMg receiver battery is 7.4v not 6 and they require regulators.

Like KC said, running a LiMg is just like running a lipo. A123's can be run without a regulator.
