It puzzles me that redundant power supply units are on sale for giant scale RC planes, but appear unavailable for regular RC planes. If experts agree that most brownouts are related to rx voltage drop, why not install redundant power. I have some 30gm NIMH 1/3AA 350mah 4.8v packs that I used on small Halfbad planes when I flew slope at Maroubra. I plan to try plugging a pack into an empty PWM rx slot on my 3D foamies, so there are 2 power leads, one from the esc and one from the NIMH pack.

Does anyone see anything wrong with this idea? Might it work to keep the rx working in case power from the esc is somehow disrupted?
