Help with a BEC for Savox Servo
 
I am looking for some help adding a BEC for my Savox TG Servo. I will be running a 6.5T Tekin motor with RSX ESC. I have a Spectrum RX (DX4C TX, 1 of the RX is 4 channel the other 3 Channel. (not sure if it makes a difference or not.

Which BEC do I need? Can someone link one from TowerHobbies? Also how do I wire them up? What goes where? Thanks for all the help!

The CC BEC is popular, you do need the CL to program it. I also like the HH bypass, for easy wiring.

Thanks for the help. I may have called it the incorrect term. Is a glitch buster the same as a BEC? Which do I need to prevent brown outs? Also I have the castle field link kit would that work to program the CC BEC?

Glitch buster is only a capacitor. Can help with brownouts but definitely simpler. Wont matter which channel it's plugged into.

What part numbers are the receivers?

tylem28 11-24-2016 10:00 PM

Savox brownouts are almost always a 4wd SC problem. I have a 1258tg in my
wifes wheeler with the old micro recievers and never had a problem. I would try it first before you get to worried.

i've used savox in everything I've owned and never had issues. I even ran a 1258tg in a RTR car and it didn't cause issues. one of those cars ran a RTR losi (spektrum) radio system with a spektrum sr300 receiver. zero issues. now everything I own runs with my airtronics radio.
I've never experienced all these issues everyone talks about.

I have experienced brown outs with Spektrum receivers and Savox servos. They were all the sport servos, like the 210 and 310. The micro receivers and higher end ones dont seem to have a problem. I think I did have a problem with the AVC receivers, but dont quote me on that one.

All my 1/8th scale, my wheeler, my 1/8th crawler (4WS) and one of my 4WD SCTs use Savox servos with Spektrum receivers with zero issues. They all have Hobbywing ESCs in them. Another problem I know of is with Castle ESCs, they dont get along with Spektrum very well, I couldn't imagine throwing a Savox in the mix would be a good idea. In that case I would definitely use a good BEC.

I run glitch caps with all my Spektrum receivers because I run all Savox. I have had glitching issues in the steering, but never a brown out. I have begun replacing glitch caps with SMC booster packs.

savox servo
 
Is the length of the lead wire on the Savox Black Edition servos the same as their orange and black case servos? The Black Edition wire looks shorter in pics that I have seen
