Default New NX4 setup help

Hey guys!

Just picked up a new nx4 on the forums. But I have a couple questions on how to set it up the electronics part. I also have the Gaui governor installed, just have to get it all setup.

I have Mks 9660A* all around except for my tail, which is running a Mks ds8910A*. I will be running either a beastx or an ar7200bx.. what else do I need to get this running? I know with either FBL I need a satelite/ and or an rx.

Confusion part: Do I need to run a BEC or do I run an Align 2 in 1?
can anyone recommend me any?

kinda confused on the BEC or LIFE rx pack...

My first nx4 build used those servos,
Don't quote me, but, it was my understanding that those servos can only have a max voltage of 6volts, and must be regulated with a linear regulator not a switching regulator.
I pulled the servos off so I could run off a 2 cell lipo non regulated.

Not sure if the align 2n1 is a linear or switching, but I would think it's a switching reg.

I used the gryphon 20amp linear, mounted on the side frame. It worked great. With the pinflag switch mounted above the tail boom block.
The WR 10amp did not have enough available power and was causing issues with my vbar in the winter.

I went ahead and purchased a Western Robotics G2 mini BEC. hopefully this should cut it.
