Just assigned my sidewinder SC speedy to Slash 2wd duty with a 13.5 Brushless. LED's are now dim as all s#it as the BEC is obviously weaker than that of the VXL speedy (or lower voltage), standard 5mm LED's just 4 of them in RPM light buckets up front. Only changed the Castle in there so I could adjust esc timing.

Ended up using a BEC from the Balance tap of my battery direct to the LED's but still bloody disappointing once again on the ESC front. Even $30 Hobbywings have a 6V bec now don't they?
