Battery power

Post by Soccerpr0 »

Are we allowed to use 2 sets or 12v battery packs for 2 fans or just one set of 12 volt batteries for 2 fans?

"Commercial batteries, not exceeding 12.0V, may be used to energize each of the vehicle's motors"...

You can have separate battery packs for each motor - you just can't have a potential difference of more than 12V across any two points in a circuit. Having a 12V battery powering the lift fan, and a separate, unconnected, 12V battery powering the propulsion fan is fine.
