Hey all you 2s lipo users out there I will ask my main question here for all that don’t want to read this book I typed. How many amps can the servo’s actually pull? Say when your at full left/right and full brake? I need to figure out what bec to pull the trigger on, and I don’t want to go overboard as a hobbywing or castle bec can get pricy at the high amp range.

Backstory, I bought two NHX lipo rx packs awhile ago as I was going to switch over to high voltage. But money got tight and I bought a cheap 3a bec which fried almost immediately while at full lock on steering and full brake. I would go life or just run the lipo straight but I’m running a flysky rx and a stock hpi throttle servo on my Baja 5sc, steering servo was upgraded with an Amazon (75kg blue) servo that I think will take 8.4v but I don’t know if the flysky rx would handle 2s and I’m fairly certain the tired throttle servo wouldn’t last long either.


So I was thinking I’ll just buy a bec that way I can run the lipos in either my rampage rally or the Baja without worrying about doing all the hv upgrades that add up.
