For sure if you want max power out of servo! If it is a high torque check voltage ratings usually 7.4v is needed...stick csn even be a lil stronger with BEC! I run one on every rig I got no matter what  |

On an esc rated for 3s you could likely get by without, depending on the servo you use. Or you might end up with brownouts while driving which isn't good. Only esc I consistently run on 3s without a BEC is the Holmes brxl. That's on light 1.9 rigs.

+1 A CC BEC is reasonably inexpensive. Sent from my modded TI-83 plus. | |

CC BEC is great if you need some other voltage than 5.0V or 6.0V. For me 6.0V is okay, so I use Turnigy BECs that cost a fraction of the CC BEC and works just fine. It takes a really high power servo to draw more than 5A while stuck and fighting to move. During normal operation there's something wrong if the average consumption is more than 1A. |
