Hi Guys

I thought I'd start a new thread on this conversation Dan and I have been having and open it right up for people to to post ideas etc

The guts of this conversation has been the Align B6T Glow/Reg system, http://www.readyheli.com/HE50H11_1_B6T_2_In_1_Voltage_Regulator_Combo_TREX_p/he50h11-1.htm which I've installed on my Kyosho Caliber 5 and Dan has one on his T-Rex 600N as far as we are concerned this bit of innovation is the ducks guts, truly awesome 6v anywhere you want it and the glow ignition start system is something else again, my Caliber only has to see the starter and she just fires up instantly ;)

Now the issue is my new project Aurora, I'll be running 4 x 8717s, BLS251, DS760 and an AR7100R which is a regulated Rx with limiter.http://www.spektrumrc.com/Products/Default.aspx?ProdID=SPMAR7100R Problem can I run the B6T as well? I dont think I can, this Rx has two separate voltage outputs 5.2v Rudder, gear, Aux2 & throttle channels, then the cyclic servos and throttle if I want, can run on virtually 8v with direct power from an OUTRAGE XPRX 2S2P 7.4V 5000mAH http://www.takeoffandland.com.au/product_info.php?cPath=163_166&products_id=3013&osCsid=fe6c6b4ced5707aafe08d73c710a8c08
So that's my problem can I run this glow/reg with the gear I have, or I should I use one of these http://www.readyheli.com/SwitchGlo_w_Alligator_pigtail_7_2_8V_p/sg1a-8v.htm

Thanks for reading, thanks for any ideas, I would love to stick with B6T but I don't think its possible, what do other people do with similar gear?
:) :) :)

Cheers Ralph
