mmp one cell question

[Arct1k]

Rather radom but the technical drawing still shows the fan:

Also the text says :

"These controllers will have their BEC circuit disabled -- removed actually -- so you will need an outboard 4.8 - 6.0 volt power source to run your electronics. We recommend a CC BEC or CC BEC Pro. "

Isn't that a touch pointless as running on 1 cell you need a voltage step up device such as the Novak boost to get to 5/6v...

Also says "We’ve also taken the fans off so users have an easier time squeezing them into tight confines" so adding a CC BEC Pro (which is about the same size as a MMPro) would be a little pointless...

its cool, even on a bad day your still a big help

so can the ccbec step up the voltage to 6v or 7v of of a single cell, i though that was something else?

so what are the one cell pan car guy running to power their radios and servos?

NO, the CCBEC and BECPro are buck regulators, and can only step-down the voltage. IIRC, Novak makes a boost regulator.

so who else make one?

No as referenced above...

I guess it should say for 1S operation you need to use something orange.... and for 2s or higher you need to use a CC BEC to make it functional....
