Default Heading Hold Gyro.

drain on the signal lines but they do pull more amps through the power
wires /snip/

I tried driving a Futaba S3010 with a GWS PG-03 rate sensor.
From a 6 volt cad stack.
The servo drives well with my dummy receiver signal - but just sits
there with the PG-03 in line.
But a scope demonstrates the GW-03 is reshaping the pulse with angular
rate....
So I ordered a Futaba 251 HH...
