TO MANY THINGS TO PLUG IN....WHAT IS TO MUCH ?
 
in my sc10 4x4 i have a castle mmp and i have to run the castle bec so that takes up two spots in my receiver,then i have the servo and a glitch buster...i want to plug in a fan but i need another place for it in the receiver and there are none.

yes i know a "Y" harness...but im already using one. can you over do it with added items ?

Well I can think of using a 2way splitter for the Esc and the bec. And you can purchase a 3way splitter here http://www.progressiverc.com/servo-splitter-3-way.html to connect the servo, capacitor and the fan. I have one question what receiver are you using? It sounds like you only have 2 ports... If you have a battery portyou can skip buying the 3way and use another 2way. The bec can connect to the battery port and will free up the ports.

If the BEC won't handle it, the cap is not going to help. Get rid of it and free up a slot in your receiver.

Just looked sr300 up. You should only need 1 y harness as you can simply do this

Aux-bec
Thr-Esc
Steer-servo
Bind-glitch and fan
