I keep my link in my toolbox... and you could have just called

my laptop is down in the dumps... so someone else will have to bring one. Ken normally brings one to comps.

Yes, I run them that way. The only CC BEC that I've had problems with burned out 1-2 minutes into using it, and a quick call to castle got me a replacement in a few weeks. Randy, (ken's son) had a CC BEC and rooster on his rig wired like this with no problems.

Just make sure to run the servo power directly off of the BEC, and only plug the signal into your rx.

Every time you buy a Monster Max Castle sends you a free one. I have had 4 Monster Max speed controls plus the o.g. Castle link so that makes 5.
