Rc pack for trex 600e

[Wardy1982]

Hi all. Just got my optipower 2150mah pack for the 600e I have built and would like some help for connecting all this up. From the rx pack I have the balance plug, a servo connector and a pair of cables with no connector. I'm using the align BEC that came with the kit and unsure what the red connector on it is as the rx pack needs to go to this? Thanks

Can anyone give advice on this as its baffling the life out of me as I'm fairly new to the hobby and nobody down at the local club today due to the high winds. Thanks

The red connector is more than likely what we refer to as JST, I would remove this and fit a connector to both rx pack and Bec that suits you, An XT60 or EC 3 would do you fine

Thank you. I have ec3 and xt connectors which is handy. Ive flown and learnt solo since I started this addictive hobby so now waiting for good weather to fly at the local club and gain knowledge on these awesome machines. I got a 5.1 voltage reg cable with the kit. Does this need to be used for a DS655 tail servo ? Cheers

No, what output is the Bec. The 655 will handle 6V without issue so no step down needed

[Wardy1982]

The specs for the unit are below, if the servo can handle 6v I cat see It being required

● Input voltage : DC 7.4V 2CELL Lithium battery
● Output voltage : DC 5.8V
● Max. continuous current : 6A
● Size : 60 x 34 x 15mm
● Weight : 31g(including wire set)

[ 5.1V two-way step-down voltage regulator ]
● Max continuous current : 5A

Thanks

It'll be fine without
