    Duration of stall load by servos

    Hi guys, still looking for help and clarifications. Many thanks in advance.
    Ken

    SITUATION
    I just got the servos and the specs state max draw of 4A under stall conditions. That's 16amps peak for worst case.

    PROBLEM STATEMENT
    The BECs I selected will provide 9A peak which is a 5A shortfall.So I have several questions

    QUESTIONS
    1) I wanted to ask how long a does stall condition in flight normally last. Can you tell from the ground that its occuring. (Besides the impending crash...)

    2) I'm hoping the Fromeco DC-UP2 will cover the gap but the capacitors are only rated for 1.2farads. I'm not sure how much time this is for 5A.

    3) Is it possible to calculate farads over amps to get length of time the capacitors will last. Hope the smart guys advise a formula if there is one.

    ASSUMPTION
    My thought was that if average stall condition falls within the capacitor supply time, then I have no worries.

    ALTERNATIVE
    Other solution is to buy two WR Super mini BEC (10A constant, 15A peak), but that's $$$.
Working...
