And cut the red wire going from the receiver to the esc.

i should be good. solder power wires, plug bec into bat input on reciever, cut red wire to ESC

Creepy is me saying "I know where you live and I have seen were you sleep"

OK, the red wire from the ESC is the positive power wire to the receiver and servos. You are replacing this red wire with the BEC plug in the battery position on the Rx. Just remove the red wire from the ESC harness plug (you don't have to cut it). Remember to leave the ESC switch in the on position. You will power up the system when you plug in the battery.

Now the BEC will power up the ESC, Rx and Servos with a steady supply of juice.
