roll servo power output
power
switched power to roll servo
Notes:
1.
All power and data wiring is #22 AWG
2.
The circuit breaker used to provide power for these inputs should be sized according to the size of the wire
being used to provide power to the circuit. A 5 amp circuit breaker/fuse is appropriate for the EZ Pilot.
