S9252 'S AND DURALITE ?

[OHIOBOWHUNTER]

I'M CONSIDERING RUNNING A DURALITE SYSTEM ON MY HELI BUT NOTICED THE PACKAGING FOR MY FUTABA S9252 SERVOS STATE TO RU N ONLY 4.8 VOLTS .... WOULD THIS STILL BE OK TO JUICE THEM AT 6 VOLTS ?

Yes you can use a 6 volt regulator with the 9252's. I would not try using unregulated voltage from the Duralite pack. It is 8.4 volts when fully charged. Stop flying voltage is 6.9 volts.
Also reach over with the left pinkie finger and turn off the Caps key. :lol:
The Gyro servo may also need to be stepped down to 5.3 volts as a few of them will not handle 6 volts.

All caps is considered yelling, no big deal, it is a cold winter right now can you tell. ;)

If you use a Li-Po pack with your Duralite regulator stop flying at 7.2.

GOTCHA !!!! will try to remember that :noteworthy

That warning came from the days when NiMH cells had high internal resistence and caused dangerous voltage drops under the load put on by digital servos.

Duralites are great, run them with a 5.3 volt regulator and you wont have to mess with step down for the tail servo and most of us couldnt tell the difference between a 6v setup and 5.3 if someone didnt tell us what we were flying.

Clay that picture is awesome! :lolol
