[ady]

evening all , does anyone in the real world run there GSR-7075-LMT : Gryphon Quasar Hyper 75V 20A HV Switching BEC . direct from a 12s pack or from the speedo leads please , it says it can handle very high inputs , thanks ady

Somebody on here just runs it from a 6 cell pack but on a 12 cell setup, his wiring must be interesting, Ian.

Mine is running from my esc leads at 50v the power leads directly soldered to the esc board seems to work a treat....big gryphon fan

6 cell pack thing is easy you just for exaple solder one wire to the red and one to the black on the same pack

Brilliant , thank you

I run it off 1 pack on both my 12s 7hv's.

The bec wires have to go on the left of that picture - side from esc.

I soldered mine to the battery terminals of the esc and run it on 12s and works great so far .

The reason I did it this way is so I can work on set ups etc on gyro without the esc/ motor live. Also gives the bec components a easier time.

thanks chaps , heathy , i see where ya coming from , i`ll get the reg as i have managed to find some good reviews on it

Ady,

I run a Gryphon Agena 45v bec on my DFC and although the Quasar can run on 12s if I were you I'd run it on 6, just much kinder on the system. As can be seen in Heathy's pic above just make sure that you solder it the negative side of the esc, ask me how I know!! Negative of Gryphon - negative of esc and positive of Gryphon - positive of same pack.
It's a very easy mistake to make, soldering it to the wrong pack, I was just not concentrating when I got it wrong and it cost me a full set off servos and an rx!! If you solder it the positive side of the esc what happens is when you plug in the second pack you send 25v straight into the negative of the system and lots of instant black smoke is the result!! :-)
I should add however that Gryphon products are bullet proof so the Quasar will be fine on 12s should you prefer it but no need IMO. :-)

cheers chap , all taken on board

Jus a little question guys as im thinking about getting the same reg for my 700e .. Are you using a switch with the regulator of not..
Also any one had any problems with thiers since??

Cheers Chris

[George J]

No switch Chris (unless you want to use a Gryphon pin switch) and have had zero issues with any of my Gryphon regs/BEC.
I use a Gryphon Agena on my 700, 45v so wired as described above off one 6s pack, been working perfectly.

Have been running mine with no switch on 12s for a few months now and have no issues at all. Its a great bec would recommend it to anyone.

[Chris Boughton]

Nice one thanks guys.. I have the 10amp version on my 700n and works great
Will get one and run of 12s

You got any pictures of this? How did you solder the BEC leads on to the ESC Board without desoldering the main ESC power leads?

Thanks muchly,
Dave
