If I were using the oopic-r board, I would run "everything" added on
like sensors, etc, off the auxiliary 5A v.reg, and add no additional
loads whatsoever to the little smt v.reg that runs the cpu. I would
use a separate supply/battery for powering r/c servos [as opposed to
running them off the 5A v.reg].
