    Default Riddle me this.......

    Ok so I have been trying to get my BRO IN LAW to make the jump from our 1/8th scale racing and come play on the rocks once in awhile but he hasnt gotten bitten yet. I let him drive my ax10 comp rig, my berg, and even my scalers but he just DONT GET IT. So he says to me "I think I would only be interested in the SUPERS". So I have been looking nonchalauntly (no idea how to spell that) and found a super bully that I liked so I went ahead and bought it with some gentle persuasion from Johnson420 & ELchupocabre. It should be here next week but I am already puzzled and rather than searching thousands of threads I wanted to see if anyone here was smart enough to answer first. ( I see you all perking up already... oooh ooh me ME!! ). LOL
    So I am planning on running 4 channels with it for THR, STR, DIG, 4WS. My receiver has 4 plugs for those 4 settings but...... I have a Castle Creations BEC that I need to use to power the receiver and servos. So how do I get the power from the bec definitively into the receiver and still use all 4 plugs for my 4 channels? Can you post a link or draw it out for me cause im kinda slow I will have ESC,Front servo, Rear servo and Punk dig plugs to put into the reciever. Please dont tell me a "Y" cable is all I need because I dont see it working.

    Like this Maybe



    You can do most of the wiring by buying Y-Harness from the hobby shop and pulling certain pins out. Or you can do it the best way and redo the plugs on your servos and such. That is up to you but the wiring diagram will show you what you need to accomplish.

    A tip, make sure that you can plug the signal wire back into the plug on the CC BEC so that you can program it with the Castle Link

    Why didn't you tell him to try a Honcho? It is the ultimate in scale rigs! it should hook him in forever.

    Hmmm that one is CLOSE Matt. I will study it some more and see if I can do it that way. I dont have two esc's but I get the picture from this diagram.

    I think you know my position on the "CompCho's" by now but you do have a point there. We will see if the Super sparks him or not first.

    The SURE FIRE WAY!!!

    Use your ESC's bec to power receiver.

    Use the CC bec to power the servos.
    I suggest one bec per servo, but most would say thats over kill.
    Each servo signal wire goes to the receiver.

    Even a pretty picture. LMAO
