# weeks ago my 310 spiraled into the ground..Thought the wing folded at a repair done some time before was pushing her very hard in the wind. I had no controll as she was going down..The fuse was split and the engine torn off again.

Re glued the bird and flew her last weekend, the wind was mild and she flew with very little trim. I was comentinghow she just keeps on going, then she did the spiral again this time the the Telemitry on my TX was warning my of low signal as she was going down. then sig loss as she was swimming in the ocean.....That water was bloody cold....

one of the speedies had blown it guts out, from the salt I dont know. But I did find that both speedies were wired up in parallel from factory..1st time Ive had the wing wiring apart..Cant test any thing now as all the electronics is junk..

What are your thoughts on having them in parallel. Ive been taught to power the RX with only one speedie to save any conflicts..

	most say to only use one esc to power receiver less say to connect both. As the plane is powered by only one battery I suspect two are ok
	I'm as happy as a very happy sandboy.

	Do you see how: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewitem.asp?idproduct=6460&aff=170178 has a 3A BEC? That is achieved by putting three 1A chips in parallel. Putting 6 chips in parallel should also work. Just don't expect too much extra (which you don't) from the extra chips.

	As long as the BEC is linear it's no problem. It's when you start putting multiple switched ones together that there becomes a potential for problems as the rf noise levels start to increase.
