| just picked up a deadbolt
Hey guys. So my neighbor had an ax10 and we worked out a trade on my rs10...I have a 3s battery and it will run it but is it safe to do so? It already had a good twist on the rear center driveshaft so I ordered a steel on for the back. I just wasn't sure of I can run a 3s safely or I'd I need to stick with a 2s

I believe to run a 3s you need to disconnect The built in bec and run a stand alone bec. Sent using lipo power |

Everything you read says not to push the stock ESC past a 2s. Get a CC BEC and then you're golden.

I don't think I fully understand what a CC BEC does...It looks like it just deliver's lower power to the servo?

I can run a 3s lipo to my esc. The esc will only send 6 volts to the servo. What if I want to run 7.4 volts to the servo ? If I run power straight to the servo from the battery, it'll will run at over 11 volts and it'll burn out. With a BEC, I can run power to it from the battery and set the voltage it sends to the servo to any setting I like up to the max voltage of the battery. | |
