It is common practice on large-scale birds to separate the servo power wiring from the signal wires to the Rx. Remember, though, that the servo power wire and signal wire share a ground wire (the "power negative wire" and make sure there is a good connection between the Rx and that common grou

I seriously doubt you are exceeding the power buss on the RX's PCB (printed circuit board). Most, if not all modern RX's boards can handle 10A continuous. The highest performance servos (digital, regular case-size) are barely exceeding 2A, even when fully stalled. If you insist on isolating servo

I am finishing a large scale glider with lots of hi-torque servos and don't like the idea of the combined servo current running throught the rx. If I take the battery leads (actually the leads from the battery plug) and wire them to a positive and a negative terminal. Wire all the positive and neg
