Great stuff. You can run it from 1 pack, there's no issues there.

I've found some alternative 3A regulator units, though the specs are slightly different to the beloved one that I wanted to use. I'm going to see if I can make it work in a similar form-factor.

Dual battery pack input with auto levelling
Hi Paul,
With the Dual battery pack input, would it be possible to have one input from an ESC & the second a battery pack? If possible then I could use a smaller battery pack in my new electric glider and effectively have a backup flight pack. Steve...

Steve,
The problem with taking the input from the ESC would be that the voltage (5V) would be too low, since the regulator needs at least 1.2V overhead. To do what you're thinking it might be easier to tap off the main pack directly, before the ESC. Paul. |

Steve,
Yes, you can use the balance plug to do that, no problems there normally since you can safely pull up to about 3A through those pins. |
