thats a good ideaSimsy said:Just make one yourself all you need is a couple of servo extensions, take out the +/- and solder them to the power feed after the switch, plug the servos in the other end and plug the remaining single wire into the rx cheap and easy.

For those who are direct powering their servos: Did you notice a difference in power compared to through the RX?
What batt were you using, the stock one?....I don't seem to have a problem with dual steering and a 4200mah pack...I'm getting enough juice for a long session. The stock 1500mah batt didn't last long even with just one servoSimsy said:The reason that I did this was whenever I was on brake and steering at the same time I would get a voltage drop that was enougth to trip my picco it was verey annoying. by bypassing the rx the picco would not read the voltage drop to the servos so I didnt have to restart my ramp every 2min. as for increased power at the servo if there was an incress I didnt notice it thats not to say there wasnt one but I cant be bothered to get the meter out to check.
Strange as I'm running the same set up with dual 5745's and 4200mah and pico but haven't run into that problem (yet) to trip the pico you have to go to 3.7volts so you had a big dropSimsy said:Im using a 4600mah batt its not a problem with the battry its just a voltage drop from both servos at full stall am useing hitech digital servos so they draw a lot of current. by direct wiering the power I have solved the prob.
