Tools and Field Equipment > Flight box panel question

Hey Pals , my flight box smoked recently due to low voltage on the battery and me trying to start my heli amyway. but today I resoldered all the burnt wires and it works good as new but I checked the voltage coming out of the remote glow plug connectors and its 11.6 volts and the starter connector is 12.6. Wont 11.6 volts fry a glowplug even if I turn down the amp adjustment? If a glowplug glows on a 1.5 volt battery then 11.6 will fry it? anyone help. Thanks

sounds like you need a new panel unless you know someone to repair that one

Your voltage will read high until you put a small load on it, then it should read about 1.5 volts.

It's OK....It's not your fault !!!
