|  voltage regulator?
At what voltage should a guy run an external BEC or volt regulator? I'm running 9.6V NIMH on a Mamba 25 and BM9 motor.

6 volts is a good place to start. Depending on your servo you may be able to run higher than 6. What servo are you running?

I think he means how much voltage/#cells does it become necessary to install a regulator. 8.4, 9.6, 10.8 etc..  |

So running a mamba max with 3s lipo, 55t lathe and 645mg servo(electronics on the way), I should invest in the castle bec? If I dont will it fry my servo?
