I'm running the Super BEC but not the Pro version. Not even sure they had the Pro back when I bought mine which was close to three years ago.

I run it off 12s and at 6v although it will also do 8.4 and 9v

Are you plugging your servos directly into your BEC or into the FBL? I too am looking to install this BEC with HV KBS servos. I would will be installing it on an S-Bus configuration.

I too run vbar with and sbus r7008sb so I'm not sure yet. I think I have to have the servos plugged into the vbar.

Servos into vbar, I put both battery leads into it too. Then I run 1 sbus wire, and a second lead from vbar to Rx with the white wire removed. The second one is probably not necessary due to low rx current draw, but there are just the right number of ports...

I will be running a Spirit FBl. I had just read the Hercules BEC recommended plugging the servo leads into the BEC for HV servos. I was not sure how reliable this configuration works as I have not seen anyone using it. I will also be using the 7008SB Reciever across s-bus.

Thanks
