Default Sidewinder w/ CC BEC

I am new to the forum and find it's a great place to get information. What's the correct way to wire up the CC BEC w/ and Sidewinder speed control? I have the bec soldered to my deans plug w/ the sidewinder and when I plug both plugs into my receiver the on/off switch dosen't work. I have the following electronics: Nomadio Sensor, Hitec 5955 servo, Sidewinder, CC BEC, 6 and 7 cell 2/3A split packs and a Integy V11 55T motor.

Thanks in advance,

Rick

On/Off switch doesn't work how? Always on or always off?

Removed the red wire from the ESC plug on the receiver?

The ccbec goes inline with the battery wires and you gotta pull the red wire out of the esc wire that goes to the rx.

Remember also. Without an additional switch on the BEC, and with your battery plugged in, you will always have power to every channel outside of the ESC, no matter the position of the ESC power switch.

With just one servo (towardpro mg 946 r) is the external BEC necessary? Running 6 cell nimh batteries.

Thanks!
