    "Like" your findings. I see you had two rather robust power supply connections to the receiver, that answers my previous question. Looks adequate to me for normal use IMHO. Appreciate you sharing your findings. Wish you didn't have to share them though :frown:.

    Interesting. Are you sure you are not selecting 1:1 in the page management setup screen? Two different things.

    You may also wish to break up the drawing into several viewports to make the drawing size more manageable.

    Don't accept a 1/4" either. In your viewport double click to get to model space. Type "zoom" then type "1/1xp" and hit enter - that will give you a 1:1 scale within your viewport. You can use "pan" to move the viewport around, but don't scroll your mouse button. Then either lock the viewport or...

    Woohoo! I would absolutely love a copy of the plans if you are willing to share!! FWIW, if you run into a problem with AutoCAD, let me know. Use it quite often at work. Just don't ask too many questions regarding 3D modeling, ;).

    I am not sure about the screwing up part, continuing my learning here as well. However, my suspicions are that you have found the problem - not enough "power feed" to the receiver bus. I do not have a lot of experience putting power hungry servos on a non-power safe receiver, but in an over...
