HV off a 2s flight pack

[J_reggie]

Can someone with the same setup post pictures of your wiring from flight pack. I plan on using two Sats and plugging in two old servo connectors wired to the flight pack to power the v- bar. Thanks

Thanks great wiring ideas... Should I have any concerns powering the vbar with regular servo wires I'm worried the servos (futaba 156s & 256) will heat the thinner wires up coming off the flight pack?
I'm definitely not banging sticks so I'm not expecting the amp draw that heavy 3d would bring

Futaba servo's are on the low end of the scale for power consumptions.

I wanted a set but even of black friday there over $500.
I opted for the jr 8917 for 439 less 10%.

What 'thinner wires' off receiver pack are you refering to ?

I use a standard lipo with the regular 12g wire that is typical. then for the heli end i use the HD servo leads (20 or 22 guage i recall ) and connect 3 of them up : port 4 on vbar , aux2 on vbar (either side of cyclics) and another into the rx ( which adds another power input to the aux of vbar )

I was using standard servo wires soldered to the battery leads. Good to know. I got them from rcdepothobbies.com they seem to always have 10-15 off, I paid 470 for the set
