Hi all,I am building a hobbyking fpv 168 airframe for use with ardupilot after successfully using it in my hz supercub for the last few months.The new plane has loads of space, but is very tail heavy and needs lots of weight in the nose. This got me thinking about power sources for ardupilot mega and the servos. Normally you would use the BEC, but to add a bit of weight to the nose i was thinking about using a reciever battery pack (NiMH 4.7v 1500mah) to power the system. I would obviously still have a large Lipo for the motor.Would this be a good way to go, or would the BEC still be better? The plane has 5 servos for flying surfaces (flaps,alerons, rudder) and one for wheel steering -6 in total.RegardsJames
