Do you run a failsafe on your nitro rigs bifft it? There are servos out there you can straight off a 2s RX pack BTW.

bifft it, Castle BEC systems can be set to output whatever you want using their software. The new 2.0 BEC can be set from 4.75-12V output, with plenty of amperage. And yes, you should absolutely buy the right ESC for your setup, always. But I've seen what happens when people cheap out and don't.

No problem at all. I wouldn't say they're a total fail, but having used them, they do not completely prevent brownout or glitches. For a few more dollars, a good BEC is damn near bombproof reliability wise.

Nope, the caps simply plug into an open channel on your RX to prevent the RX from momentarily losing voltage and causing loss of control. The BEC on the other hand gets wired in directly to your battery plug, and you remove the red wire coming off your ESC's servo plug that goes to your RX. All...

As stated, caps provide a very short protection period. The caps sold for RC use are super small, and thus have very little capacity, and are only marketed as glitch busters and not true brownout protection. So claiming they definitely will protect against a brownout is a tough claim to make as...

You don't need both a cap and a BEC, as they're doing sort of the same thing, so it's redundant. The difference is, the cap will protect against a very short momentary brown out, but once the cap discharges, you're back to no control. The BEC which actually ties into your power feed and negates...

I'm really not sure what you're asking, or what you're confused about? A BEC is always a good idea to prevent a RX brownout caused by pulling more voltage from the ESC's onboard BEC than it can deliver to all components at once. Most onboard ESC based BEC circuits are 3A, and few even deliver...

End point adjustments, learn it, love it, use it. :D I run a 1270TG on my Wraith after it ate a 7950 one day. Once you have that kind of TQ and speed, you'll be forever spoiled, and never go back. I've actually had the Wraith move smaller rocks if the wheels are up against them. LOL I also run...
