I had some glitching problems with having my Dig servo plugged into my reciever. So I hooked it up to the BEC, but I want the steering servo and the dig servo to have two different voltage inputs.

Is it a normal thing to run 2 BEC's? or do most people just run there dig servo in there reciever? :popcorn:

*Thanks in advance! :cheers: :cheers: :thumbsup: :party:

Never used a BEC for a dig servo--always let the internal BEC on the ESC handle that with no issues,,

Steering servo's "BLACK AND RED" go to the BEC's "BROWN AND RED". Then the yellow wire goes into the AUX slot of the reciever only.

I am running a DX3R and with a new "SR300" reciever.

The truck goes ape chit after I put the dig servo (after a while). I am thinking I have to adjust the travel of the dig servo, right? So its not straining the dig servo and its not sitting there drawing power. Right? :confused:

:cheers: :thumbsup:

For starters--return the dig servo to normal form--put all 3 wires into the plug and stick it into the RX. make sure to wire the steering servo with red/black to the servo then the yellow(or white) signal wire to the STR of the RX. Remove the rod off the dig servo and try it.

Will do! :thumbsup: (After I buy a new dig servo, I think I toasted it last night. :lol: :lol: :lol: )

But a least my lipos will be in the mailbox when I get home. :party: :party: :party:

Thanks again Mike!!!!

If your radio has settings for digital/analog on the servo ....check that first and change it as appropriate.

You already mentioned it, but check your endpoints,especially if you already burned up the servo.A stalled servo will draw lots of power

I got the dig servo pretty much dialed in but I am having a bit of a CVD issue. :oops: :lol: Me no like MIP CVD's any more. :twisted:
I am seriously pondering getting the Super 300 CVD's.
Or I might try out the Axial CVD's, they seem to work ok i my 2.2 scale truck.

You will like the super 300's,they come with a new locker and the backlash is much less than any other locker on the market right now.If you want to check them out sometime LMK, they are in my trail scaler.
