Hi!
I am a newcomer to RC hobby. I have begun constructing my Axial Yeti 1/10 kit. For ESC I bought hobbywing ezrun wp sc8 and for motor the Axial 3150kv brushless (same which comes with RTR). I have not yet bought other electronics but now I am at loss with all the info and have hard time fathoming all this.
I plan to run the combo with 3S lipo, as for servo I am planning on getting Savox 1211SG.
More I have been reading about this setup, more it seems I might need an external BEC unit for servo and since I have not yet soldered electronics together I want to do it "right" the first time and install BEC from the beginning.
Now this is where it gets confusing. What sort of BEC would be sufficent for this setup? I have eyed Castle Creations 10A BEC which should be plenty, but I have no interest in getting the castlelink interface. Will the stock setting in servo (5,1V) be enough? Servo seems to be operating at 6V but does this mean that BEC will have to provide at least that voltage or is BEC voltage for the reciever? Also I was wondering if cheaper 5A with 6V output Turnigy BEC will be sufficent?
I live in remote place with no RC hobby shops nearby so I have to order almost all the electronics from internet so I would like to get the right electronics from the get go
Thank you so much!
