Under no load conditions, the two servos (theoretically) track equally (“dumb” voltage AND power consumed are the same for a given amount of rotation). Under a loaded condition, both servos consume more power, but, the analog servos lags behind (in the amount of rotation compared to a static no load conditions). The digital servo, relative to the analog servo, consumes a greater amount of power to maintain exact same of rotation (as static no load), and this is accomplished by consuming greater power without specific command from the TX or pilot. The servo is reacting to a specific set of conditions…just as the ESCs currently do now with regard to changes in timing at different RPMs and
different loads. Just as the ESC would do if functioning to maintain constant power output.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

To make a rule against something so obviously good is crazy. It would be like prohibiting voltage regulators on our airborne RC system packs. Or prohibiting the use of circuits that compensate for temperature changes in our systems. I'm for
simplifying the rules and regs. The fewer the better. Define the size of the plane and the maneuvers to be performed and anything you can do to make it fly better is okay.

connected to the ESC. Between the other two poles we place our<BR>> 11th cell.
