it allows you to run 2 servos strong and a motor without a servo or motor pooping out and glitching.  you'll need one if you are going to do any serious comps with a dig unit. |

The BEC is supplying power to the RX and servo so that your ESC has it's own power. You can set the BEC voltage to what you want. Thus allowing your servo to make more torque! You don't really need a BEC for a scaler but it never hurts  |

ok I was just wondering because the scaler i have used to have a bec hooked into the steering servo then to the rx I guess he had it set up just to have extra power to the steering?

Even in my scalers I've found adding an external bec was well worth the extra little it of cash
