Default Wiring Bec directly to servo

Been searching on here for awhile for proper wiring a bec to the servo instead of plugging it right into the servo. Does anybody have a wiring diagram or can explain it a little better than whats on this site? And if anyone knows what wires on my CKRC wiggle coorespond to the red,black,white wires on a futaba servo.

Running a CC 10 amp w/ a sidewinder esc.

Thanks for the help

This may help.



Its using two BECs instead of one, but you can wire it the same. There is also a dig servo powered off the BEC as well, but you can ignore if its N/A. The M and F I've got writen there denote if there is a male or female receiver plug on the end of the wire - eg the two signal wires going from the servos to the Rx have male plugs on the ends.

The only thing I would add is to make yourself a Y harness that connects between the BEC (for the + (red) and - (ground, black) wires), the receiver ( for the signal (white or yellow) wire) and the servo.

That way you don't have to cut any of the servo or BEC wires or pull contacts out of connectors.

Wow! what a difference, thanks for the diagrams. How hot does does the servo get while crawling?

No problem. Glad you could read it!

Depends what you're doing with the servo as to how hot it gets. If you're constantly stalling it out by getting wheels jammed up etc, it may get too hot to touch - well, my 7955 does anyway.
