A lot of things could be happening with short battery life. I use a
4 cell 150 ma NiMH and get about 40 min of flying time. That is
after I have cycled the new battery several times. Not sure what
would cause the bussing. I have had that problem on other servos and
never got it corrected, but now I use JR 241's and have not had the
problem with them. I did not notice/associate the bussing with short
the batter life, but that have been an oversight.
