    Hey guys,

    Are powering FF servos through Radians? Or, do you just connect the signals to the Radian and get power from different BEC?

    I'm going to use a seperate BEC to power servos and will just connect the signals to the Radians.

    I want to know how you guys manage this.

    I power the servos via the Radians, but I use a separate Recom/Arch DC/DC converters for camera control because of electrical noise caused by the servos feeding back along the +5v supply.

    If you want to see the amount of electrical noise, see this thread.
