309DPS-battery into DSC port
I have a Futaba 309DPS reciever in a giant Corsair and am running out of ports to plug the battery into. Can I use the Direct Servo Controller port to plug the flight pack into?

No, the DSC only supplies power to the decoder chip. I'm not 100% sure if this is true on your receiver but it's easy enough to make a splitter that you can plug both the servo and a battery into a single slot. I'm not sure if a standard Y cable would work, I don't think they're designed for that amount of current. But if it was heavy duty wire it would.
