The SuperSwitch is a DSC style switch designed for the demands of large scale aircraft. The standard switches with their 22 gauge wires are just not sufficient for 1/3 scale aircraft up. Even with dual receivers in the 40% and larger planes the current draw from the battery through the switch can be substantial during maneuvers. We have measured a digital servo, unloaded, drawing 0.6 Amp when kept in continuous motion. Image what the same servo is drawing under load and then multiply that by the six to eleven servos you have in the plane. While this may be momentary this is when you need the least voltage drop to the servo as voltage supplies the servos’ torque. Reduce the voltage the servo sees and you reduce the torque the servo can supply. |
