Opinions on the UBEC

[BrianG]

I use the UBEC in my BL Revo with absolutely no glitching whatsoever. I did install a 1000uF capacitor in the aux slot in the Rx to help filter any noise on the power line though, and I'm using a Spektrum DX3. It also helps to keep the Rx away from the motor wires. I also wouldn't install the UBEC right on/next to the Rx just in case the UBEC emits a little noise (even though the specs say it doesn't emit appreciable noise).

I heard a lot about burned/melted UBEC.
Personally I prefer MedusaProducts Potencia BECs (they are also coming out with a 6A
version).

I use it on electric helis, my monster, and some times ago on my touring and on my losi
buggy. I never experienced problems with Potencia BECs. And first over all, I think they
are really more reliable than the UBEC ones.

I'm saying this also for its capacity to keep quite costant the tension when the current draw
is jumping a lot.
