Default VBar and Switchglo...

Can I use the Aux port on my VBar to supply power to my Switchglo?

Thanks,
Chuck

Yes, powerbus is shared on the Vbar, any port can be power in or out.

If switchglo is connected to ch4, can ch4 be assigned to a switch on my X9303? I tried connecting my switchglo to the v-bar Aux ch but it doesn't trigger my switchglo.

I'd also like to know if you can use your TX to trigger Switchglo without having to run a seperate RX.

That's analogous to what I do on my flybarred Knight 3D with the gyro gain channel.

I have my Gov Ch (Aux2) tied to FMod. If I used a Y-connector on Aux2, wouldn't that simply arm the switchglo without allowing me to turn it on/off?

I am also considering the switchglo... But I need to know how to wire and activate it with a JR 9303/9503 via a switch.
