Hi,
I'm a Newbie and looking for help to build the best DC-DC Power regulator for an RC Airplane.
Here are my requirements:
The power regulator is to be installed in an RC airplane to drive an On Board Glow driver. A Glow Plug in an RC Airplane uses between 1.2 and 1.5 volts and will draw up to 2.5+ amps hence the 3 amp requirement.
Since this is to go into an RC Airplane the device cannot generate any radio interference.
I have been looking a building a Buck Converter but my tests resulted in a lot of heat over 212F on the Buck converter I was testing with.
Any input is greatly appreciated.
Thank you...

Here are my requirements:
- Convert between 6 and 16 volts to between 1.2 and 1.5 volts supporting up to 3 amps
- Small form factor
- No radio interference generated
- Low heat generation.
