Hi Matt,

if I understood right the schematics, it should then possible to feed
high voltage servos (7.4V, 2 lipos), seen that it is insulated from
the rest of all the equipment. Am I right ?

It should be possible to feed the module with Vcc pin and a Gnd
somewhere, leaving RC rx insulated (if this make any sense).

Best regards,

Ric

Correct. Servo output power is completely isolated from the receiver
power. That includes ground.

Vrx (servo positive volts) is isolated from Vcc. It can be conencted
through the holes marked PWR

The receiver ground is connected to the processor ground.

Yet another addition to the getting started docuement

Matt
