|  SERVO BATTERY QUESTION I am trying to install 4wheel steering with this 1/4 scale servo in front http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/WTI0001P?&I=LXLN94 using this servo reverser http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/WTI0001P?&I=LXANF2 The servo requires an additional battery plugged into the servo. I would like to use this kind of battery pack since I have a ton of AA rechargeables around. http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...2&I=LXDXC9&P=K I am open for suggestions THANKS |

| Re: SERVO BATTERY QUESTION The servo youy have has the exact same specs as the Hobbico CS-80`s I got yesterday and on the box it say to use at least a 1200mah battery. I don`t know how manny mah the 4 cell AA provide but I think they only supply 4.8v, I may be wrong and mabey someone else can clarify this. |

Thanks! By the way, I'm only running 1 steering servo right now, and I have a 4 AA pack like on the link above. After probably about 3 hours run time I haven't had to change them yet. I'm running a HS-945 now. | |

| Re: SERVO BATTERY QUESTION I just got the Tower TS-80 in the mail today. It comes with a Y harness, one end plugs into the CH 2 slot and the Y goes to the servo and the batt. pack. You leave the Batt. slot on the rec. empty. This is for BEC, for non BEC plug the batt. into the batt. rec. slot. And i'm running an HPI 1200 Nimh 6 volt pack. BTW, its a BIG servo, ya gotta make room for it  |
