Default Castle BEC Pro

I just saw this on the Castle Website:
http://www.castlecreations.com/products/ccbec.html#

Input: 12S max

Output: 4.8V-12.5V, 20A

The user manual does say that those numbers assume at least 5mph airflow over the unit.

I saw it in a magazine but it looks pretty big like almost the size of the sidewinder.

I think it's more like the size of a Mambo Micro.

Their older 10A said the same thing.

I wrote the review for RC Driver testing it on my Super with dual 2 x 7955TG at stall... The results of the test are below.

In reality it is about the size of a SW or MM and is really only for use in a Super at best - The dual power outputs are a nice touch...

I'll be running one next week at Donner in my super...

Arctik, nice work! It looks like the Pro has very small current drops under load...
