| 2 external BEC's or one - snow plow project
I'm looking at buying a new SCX10 Deadbolt. I'm wanting to put a RC4WD snow plow on it. I emailed RC4WD and asked them what they recommended for oz/in. torque in a servo for the snow plow. They responded and said more torque, the better. So... I would like to keep the project as cheap as possible. I'm looking at getting a couple Solar D772 servos, one for steering and one for the snow plow. Should I run an external BEC on the steering servo, and an external BEC on the servo for the snow plow - 2 external BEC's total? I'm thinking about running 2s in the Deadbolt. Do you think I could get away with 1 external BEC on just the steering servo, or should I run an external BEC on both servos? Just trying to keep it a low budget project. Thanks!!!

I have run 3 D772's off one BEC for my custom slow plow rig. I never browned out or had any issues. I think you'll be fine. Run the Solar at 8 volts though! |
