My servos are now Naro's and they appear to be drawing too much current from the brushless controllers BEC (which is what was powering the servos before, may explain the random turning off I had before). Any suggestions ?

If Divinity can't run, could anyone spare a flea to team with Little Devil ? I feel Hell's Anthology II coming up :).
Hi Dave.
Are you using 1A bec controllers?,I have found some with a 2a bec on ebay.
They come in 8a,10a and 12a. All with 2a bec.

Here is a link to the 8a one on ebay...

i just checked the post code from a few pages back and it is wrong

it is ment to be BS1 6 (space needs to be between 1 and 6 due to how satnavs work i think)

BS16 is on the other side of bristol :)

The post code of the Radcliffe car park next door to the venue is BS1 6SW that should get you very close.

Greetings from (not) sunny Bristol! I am here and in the Travelodge. I've already been to the venue, and its easy to get to on foot but hard in a car. There is a big car park next to it but it says "Private: No Parking" on it. Might be a good place to unload before going and parking somewhere else. I'll ask the girl on the desk if she has any knowledge of the best car park to use and get back to you.
Both the car parks on Peter's map are there and look like your best bets, though one involves walking down a fair few steep stairs, so as I say, maybe best to unload first, then park.
If anyone wants to contact me somehow, PM me on here and I'll send my mobile number over.
Wishing you all a safe journey.

All out by 6 Jarvis. Though the AWS should be finished a good bit before then I think.
