Control 3. Q: I’ve heard that the DSM system is less tolerant of low voltage. Is that correct? Identification A: All DSM receivers have an operational voltage range of 3.5 to 9.6 volts. With most systems this is not a problem as most servos cease to operate at around 3.8 volts. When and Location using multiple high-current draw servos with a single or inadequate battery/ power source, heavy momentary loads can cause the voltage to dip below this 3.5-volt threshold thus...
