Question about Dionysus Designs Servo Slower
Have any of you used this device? I bought some to slow the flap deployement on a Corsair. I've hooked them up to test out, and found that while the servo is in motion, I can feel the motors in the other servos "Pulsing". This happened when my 9CAP was on FM, and now again that I've converted to 2.4 Fasst. I'm leery of putting a plane into the air with these devices, since they are somehow affecting the other servos. Any ideas, comments?
Thanks in advance,
Sam

RE: Question about Dionysus Designs Servo Slower
Sam, if they are effecting the other servos, they are either feeding noise back through the reciever, or are causing pulsing power draws, droping the overall voltage in spikes. Neither condition is acceptable. I would call it an experment gone bad and ditch them.
You could trouble shoot a bit with a VoltWatch as it wil show you if you are getting high current draw spikes as the lights will start lighting up closer to the yellow end. Some flickering near the yellow is normal. but a lot indicats a current spike that is taking the voltage to a dangerous low level. It would be an excerise in curiosity though as there isn't much you could do about it.
