I am using my mrc electronics in my play rig and it has a slot for bind/ batery. That is were you would plug the bec in, but you must pull the red wire out of the esc plug or it will cook something.:-(

Default hitec 125$servo

If you are using a high dollar servo. Remember that the MRC radio does not have any endpoint adjustment. You could be setting that high dollar servo for a short life. Setting the endpoints on your servos is something not to overlook. Just a thought

You can use the dualrate steering dial on the stock MRC radio to in effect set your endpoints. Might not endup getting exactly the same amount of throw both directions though.
