regulator. We think you’ll find it to be the most capable and flexible
BEC on the market. Please use this product within its capabilities.
SPECIFICATIONS CURRENT OUTPUT
Length: 1.2” (30mm) Peak: 10 amps
Continuous:
<12 volts input = 7 amps*
<24 volts input = 5 amps*
*Ratings are determined with a 5mph
airflow on the BEC. Servo connectors are
not rated for current in excess of 5 amps.
Users are encouraged to replace the
connectors if more than 5 amp currents
are anticipated.
Width: 0.6” (15mm)
Height: 0.4” (10mm)
Weight: 0.4 oz (11 grams)
Input
Voltage:
5v to 25.2v
(2S to 6S LiPo)
LED: LED
on indicates proper function of CC BEC. If LED is o  ,
check for proper setup.
VOLTAGE OUTPUT
Default setting: 5.1 volts. User selectable in 1/10th volt increments
between 4.8 and 9 volts.
Castle Link USB Interface required to change output voltage (sold separately).
LOW INPUT VOLTAGE
In the event that the input voltage falls below the desired output
voltage, the CC BEC output is essentially equal to the input level.
CC BEC cannot output more voltage than the battery it draws from.
The CC BEC will not operate or produce any output when input voltage
drops below 4.8 volts.
RF NOISE
Always range check your model. This device should be treated
much like a speed control. Try to keep as much distance as possible
between the radio receiver and components and the CC BEC unit.
