Default 2 mmpros, bec, adapter walk into a bar...

So have a dx3r , wantasummit adapter, 2 mamba micros, castle bec. The castle bec is wired directly to the servo at 7.4v. To power the receiver i'll use an esc. Do I pull the red wire from one esc or leave them both in?

I thought this was gonna be a joke

Anyways, pull the power wire from the servo to the rx. What would be better though is pull the esc power wire and plug the bec into the rx. But thats just me.

YES, only use one of the ESC's to power the reciever.

idkk, i have two hh br-xl's powering my rx, which the rx is powering the servo, i think as long as both both esc's are pushing the same voltage, and are from the same battery than there is no harm in leaving them both in, but i don't know for sure it works fine for me but i may slowly be burning something up.

But i did read the question wrong...Sorry

So what i meant to say was... be sure the servo power wire is not connected to the rx, only the bec. BUT i would just disconnect the esc power wires, and use the bec to power the servo and the rx. But thats just me...

Don't leave both red wires from the ESC's,Pull 1 and run the bec power to the servo. The mamba's don't like having voltage comming in.
