BEC's.....

[telboy]

.....which one basically?

Never had to use one before so no clue on them at all.

I'm using a Castle Creations BEC Pro, but that's just so I can output at 9.6V...

I'd always recommend the Castle stuff, though Flightpower will probably do a good BEC too. The standard Castle BEC would be enough for your set-up (easily!), and it's not too pricy either.

I just used one of these tel: A 5/6v 3-5A UBEC
just from ebay.
Dont need one on the bigger dedicated speedos though

[Marvin]

Is it capable of running 16.8V input though?

[James]

it was for 14.8 on my application, i didnt see tels system?
