Default MMP Built BEC for 7.4v

Hi,

I read from other thread that MMP's built in BEC can be bump up to 7.4 or more.
i am using HV servos and receivers + the external bec.
I really like if don't have to install the external BEC for HV servos...
I tried to find correct thread with this bump but i couldn't...
anyone has "how to"? thanks again~

MMP Bec voltage is adjustable via the Castlelink software

External bec is your best option unless you want to run a seperate battery to power high amp draw servos

Whats the issue with running an external bec ?

Cheers

It costs 30 more, soldering...sometimes layout...
I was just curious because if MMP supports 7.4 or above
Then I should take that advantage...no other esc supports 7.4v and above for builtin BEC.
I guess it was wrong or misleading information that MMP can be bump to 7.4 or above...

Thanks anyways

The MMP Internal BEC is notoriously weak, I'd go the External BEC, or even direct wire the power to your servo from your Lipo Balance plug (assuming a 2s Lipo car) via a Y lead and an adapter and still have the MMP power the receiver.

i run the savox HV servo with my MMP and use a spektrum voltage protector, works excellent and was only 6 bucks!
