| CC BEC - Novak Rooster
I'm going to install a BEC on my crawler. It is for a Rear Steer set up using the Aux on my DX3R and a 3100. I need to know if the factory settings on the BEC is enough to run both a HS-645MG For rear steer and a 7955 TH threw a Novak Rooster combo at the factory settings (5.1v) or do i boost the power up? If i'm to boost it up would it be to 6v on the BEC? Is there any thing i should watch out for in this set up? What is the out put Voltage on a Rooster ESC? |

Not sure if you got castle creation BEC but if you have a castle link you can set the bec to any voltage youd like. Id bump it up to 6v to get the most out of your servos.

If it's a CC BEC, I would almost set it to the max voltage of the 7955 and run the power direct to the servo. Then, use the existing ESC BEC to power the 645mg since it won't load the ESC much. Best of both worlds. |

Ok it looks like i won't need the CC BEC after all. I have the 7955 on the rear and the 7950 on the front. runs just fine lots of power supper fast no glitches. I'll put the 7955 back on the B44 then go get another 7950. i love my Hi-tec servos. |

I predict you will change your mind when you have the steering in a bind and the RX stops working due to a power brownout. |

I'll let you all know how it works out in the long run. the 7950 is rated at 403 oz at 6v which is what the esc is rated at. at 7.3v it goes to 488oz. how much do i really need for a AX10. I think i'm good. | |

I ran a single 7955TG off my Mamba Max BEC (dual 40T brushed motors though, so more draw there) and the RX would die on me. Added a CC BEC wired direct to the servo and no more issues.

The Novak Rooster ESC which i have on the Ax10 puts out 6v. How much does a Momba Max put out? The guys i race with in short corse have problems with the 7955 with Momba max pro. They had to use a BEC. Me i run 7955 same as them but all my stuff run on the sidewinder Set up with 5700 4 pole 5700 2 pole and a 4600 2 pole no glitching no problem. I looked on Castle Creations web site but got no info on voltage out put. |
