3. Connections and controls
Connect the two batteries using the two UNI connectors. Both servo leads should
be connected to the receiver. If all the recei ver servo sockets are in use, use a Y-
lead for the second battery connection. The second battery lead increases opera-
tional security, as the current flowing is shared between the two cables and sets of
pins.
