Should I just be considering higher capacity batteries and heavier gage wire, or is there something on the market that can help me with my new aircraft project?
A-105: I am not an expert at Giant Scale or quarter scale. I do plan on building a 1/4-scale Piper Cub Special (PA-11) for the 2005 Northeast Electric Aircraft Technology Fair, but at a planned weight of 13-14 pounds, I dont think Ill be using 10 servos as you indicated you might. To answer your questions as specifically as possible, I did make certain inquires. My good friend Nick Ziroli Sr. told me that his giant P-38 twin used 14 servos. He powered his RC system with higher-than-normal-capacity batteries and employed the heavy-duty extension cables offered by his RC system manufacturer. Nick practically wrote the book on Giant Scale, and I have to assume he has learned a great deal throughout the years. He went on to speculate that the modelers who fly the giant 3-D-type models, which do hovering-type maneuvers and a lot of vertical performance, use things such as redundant battery packs, receivers, and extra-heavy-gage wiring. Then I put out an inquiry to several of my RC manufactu
