not sure about the rx power supply

[Evan]

im looking at the castle bec pro. is this good to get or should i look at something else.

id like to use some kinda regulater so im not limited certain batterys. ill be running savox servos probly runn them all at 6 volts .

i have modded 450 size speed controls to work as rx power supplies and i think ill do this again untill i figure out what i want to buy.

i dont think i want to be flipping a switch all the time ust plug the deans in and go. whatver i use will be run that way.

thanks guys for your advice

Every thing at 6v here and that's exactly what I use... and have been using for several months now. Doesn't even get warm. My rx pack is a 3s 2100 25C Hyperion. I know CC has had some issues as of late, but I haven't had an issue... lots of flights.

[Evan]

thanks for the reply. my 1290 is only rated for 6 volts and 1258s 7.4 so i figure 6 is plenty all the way around.

your useing the cc bec pro?

yeppers

What bird is this for Evan? Nitro 600?

[McKrackin]

6.6 volt LiFe and no regulator.
Or an AR7100R RX and a 2S lipo and no regulator.

Either way,I suggest the AR7100R RX since it has a built in rev limiter.
It needs no regulator or governor.

[Evan]

yeah gather 600 parts.

how do you go about pluging the battery into the reciever. i know they have reciever packs with reciever plug but i dont want to be unpluging that all the time.

thanks guys im starting to see through the mud

I use a 6.6v LiFe and an AR7100R, works awesome, it uses a switch so I never unplug the LIFe unless I am charging it.

I use a durilite system on mine 7.4 volt lipo 2300 mah battery with heavy duty switch and a regulated to 5.8 volt's on all three of my nitro's never a worry
But Ii also run Futaba radios

There's an adapter that plugs in the RX and has a Deans or whatever on the other end.

The AR7100R RX has a power lead with whatever plug you want on it.

[Evan]

thanks guys, ill check into the 7100 r though i fear its out of my price range right now.

as i stand i have enough to order the bird this coming monday then the followwing week possibly cyclic servos that leavs me lacking cash for main blades. not to bad for a almost entirely ebay funded bird just getn rid of stuff i dont want or need anymore

[Evan]

ohh yeah alitle hot for my blood price on the new 7100r is all over the place 134 is cheapest i found it all the way up to 219, itl have to wait

[The Dude]

Evan, you have all winter to build her, take your time!

[Evan]

Yep plenty of time..

Thanks to you I'm ordering two pairs of quick UK pushrod ends. I've got the gyro and tail so I can get going on the carbon tail pushrod

[The Dude]

Do you have a link to the push rod ends?
