Perhaps someone can develop servos that incorporate the 2.4Ghz receiver circuitry in each case, as well as a LiPo battery. Then each servo would be its own independent little machine. Maybe have the receiver and battery come as a snap-on to each servo. While you're building, you just program each servo to respond to whatever channel you need to set it up for.<br>
.<br>.<br>However, I would think it a pain to have to individually charge each servo throughout your airplane. <br>.<br>.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Jul 10, 2010 at 9:57 AM, <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:ronlock@comcast.net">ronlock@comcast.net</a>></span> wrote:<br>
