dual power question for 3gx

[maxtremis]

where are we supposed to connect the 2nd power source to 3gx??

Hey.

I think you're going to have to use a Y lead to send power in on say the throttle channel as well as the BATT In port.

Using satellites you can use both ports on the lower row for power in. I'm using DMSS now so have batt in and y lead into the other lower port.

thanks, i had thought about putting the 2nd into the s-bus but have read conflicting advice on doing this...

is that the s-bus port?

[squareben]

Yeah. Power into the batt port and the bind/sbus port. I got the same conflicting advice, but saw some encouraging stuff on helifreak and tried plugging my battery into the sbus port only and it started up as normal.

As long as the polarity is right (plug in the right way up) it works fine. I had one plug in my sbus rx and the other in the power point.
