## Powering servos and FC (fixed wing)
These boards have a set of diodes which allow you to power servos
and the flight controller in three different ways, without back EMF
from the servos damaging the electronics. Most commonly an ESC
connected to the servo rail provides 5V power for the servos.

If your opto-isolated ESC doesn't provide 5V and you have servos,
connect a 5 BEC to the servo rail (any of the servo outputs 1-4).

The BEC can also power the board electronics, through a protective diode.

Do NOT bridge any other 5V pad to the servo rail, or connect servos
to any other 5V pad on the board. The back EMF from a a servo can
destroy the chips on the board.
