Default conncting gryphon 7020 to full size vbar

Hi there
On the 7020 there are outputs to servos which are able to supply 10amps.
Can i connect only one cable to the vbar to power all the servos connected to the vbar?
I did that today for adjustment of the vbar and it was working ok, will it hold in the air like this?

Thanks
Elad.

well I run it differently, I have all servos connected to the gryphon, then you link the gryphon outputs to the vbar - they will power the vbar - I have set the gryphon to 7.4V to drive my servos at 7.4v constant ... this is how you would usually set this up

That is the way they intended it to be connected, but on the X7 there is not so much room for so many wires...
And I personally don't like so many failure points along the way..

If the gryphon is actually supplying 10Amps out of every servo connection, then it seems like one connection might be enough to power the vbar with all the servos connected to it..

I think you may be missing the point of the 2 lines, they are for redundancy. they both give the required voltage but you would use both for a backup. I just use a "Y" for one of the servos and run the second line in there. room for wires is a problem in all helis.
