    Default Wireless servo

    I searched the topic on google and found nothing except a discussion on a car forum. I know you can't get power to the servo unless you use wires, which completely defeats the purpose, but what about ESC control? you would not have a BEC, but you could adgust the COG slightly with the ESC, to get you that extra %, if your radio is at the back and won't reach. plus it would get rid of one more cable, and no risk of crossing the cable and causing interference. Thoughts?

    I have a wireless link between both my servo/ESC and my controller, it uses a radio link on the 2.4ghz band.

    A servo extension cord does it all for cheap and allows placing the ESC anywhere the motor leads can reach. Wireless????

    Gottcha, nothing wrong with that. But remember, KISS is almost always the best way to go.
