BEC next to ESC next to RX

[mewalsh100]

Ok guys, looking for info on this. I'm dealing with really limited space and wondering if can place the BEC, ESC and RX all in one small area? I've reaearched around here and in general on the web. Seem to be a lot of varying opinions. Everything from absolutely not to it's absolutely no problem with 2.4ghz.

Does anyone have any personal experience with this or opinions?

Is this a small enough area?



I have never had a single glitch on any of my 2.4ghz gear no matter where they are mounted.

I servo tape my castle bec to the side of my Holmes BLE. My 2.4 Futaba rx sits on the side next to it. No issues at all

So glad I reached out here and asked. I was driving myself nuts trying to find locations for them seperately. Now, I'm confident I can put them all on a small bracket I made.

Thanks again for the help guys!

After you get it wired up test everything on the bench then do a range check to make sure you are not range-limited due to interference. ESCs can be noisy and cause interference with the RX, so you might need to swap the RX end for end to get the antenna to a better spot (or just try rerouting it). The CC BECs normally are not noisy and have stuffed them into the RX box with the RX with no issues.
