Castle CC BEC on a quark 125b

[mahazael]

Would there be any benefit to adding a Castle CC BEC to a Quark Monster Pro 125b? I have one lying around and wanted to put it to use.

If you plan to run more than 3s lipo it will make a big difference in temps. Anything over 2s lipo thru the internal bec will make addl heat, and that is not good...

Its not just a benefit. Its required for anything over 8 cell NiMH or 3s lipo.

I take it the built in BEC isn't that great, eh?

[jhautz]

Thats what it says in the manual.

Anything over that voltage and the BEC will overheat and possibly ruin the rest of the controller with it.

ah.. ok. I haven't received mine yet.. still in transit so I have not seen that yet. At least I have a use for this BEC.

Thanks guys
