| Mamba Max (not Pro) and BEC?
I have a Mamba Max,not the pro model in my XR10 that I picked up used. When I search I can't find the internal BEC rating on this. It came with a 3S pack and I will be using a Hitec 5955TG with it. Do I need an external BEC? I bought one off ebay and it still hasn't come but want to be able to use this, just not sure if I will have power issues without the BEC. Should I use a 2S until I get the BEC? Any thoughts? Thanks |

The MM has a relatively low internal voltage setting below 5v, running two motors and a strong steering servo without a BEC dedicated to the steering servo your servo will stall when your turning and running both motors. So yes you'll need a BEC if you want the best performance out of your steering, |

BEC YES. Running without a BEC on 3s you risk burning up the ESC. You may be able to run on 2s, but it still may stall out. |
