  • LCD Volt meter?

    Does anybody know if anyone sells a LCD volt meter that could plug into a Reciever?

    Cheers

    Why an LCD one?

    What's wrong with a normal LED one (except that they're not much use with NiMh battery packs)?

        Running a regulated power supply. Wanted to see the instant voltage of the LiPo cells under servo load

          Good call Stuart - never heard of these before - just what you need for NiMh packs.

          Pricey though.

            Spartan RC is ran by Angelos & John. Angelos is a member of the site and I'm sure he will answer any PM's you have. He has a reputation for electronic magic and was the guru for the Futaba Campac's, Futaba Hidden menu's and the fact the 601 gyro and 502 are the same just wired differently.

              you really need a loaded meter. Servo load on the ground wont give you an accurate voltage.

              I just stick the charger in discharge mode at 1amp for 30secs and then read the voltage. Much more reliable way of doing it.

                Ade,

                That was the way i thought of doing it. Just didn't know if anyone had made an on board good checker.
