hey guys,

i have a CC bec pro on a logo 600 that i'm about to fly for the 1st time.

i'd like to know if i can (or i should) use the 10a output from the bec on the system (v-bar+futabaR617s) or only 5a would be enough.

i'm afraid of using too little and have a brownout or using too much and having everything tosted.

don't know v-bar enough yet.

thanks.

I would use the 10, as the current draw in not always that high, its as needed, over voltage can be a problem if you use a 6v on a 5v servo

What do you mean use the 10A or 5A output? You can't adjust the output current, only voltage. The BEC Pro is 20A anyway...

If you're talking about the connectors, use both. The connectors themselves are only rated at about 5A each, the current that 3 full size HV servos can pull is well above 5A.

thanks guys,
i'm using the two leads (10a).
hope it will be all right.
