Castle Creations 10A Bec change the settings and why

[@strawhatsam]

Thank you for explaining and showing exactly what you need!

[@MrNiteriders1]

Good info man. I also run the Castke bec.

[@izzysrcmodsandbuilds6099]

I cant thank you enough you made that easy

[@1967illya]

Glad i could help!

[@user-pr3ft6gp8t]

Thanks for sharing this, still valuable today!

[@1967illya]

Ty sir. It still is one trusty Bec and as long as they sell it, many don't know about the stock settings.

[@oldgeezer3324]

Thanks for the information, good job.

[@1967illya]

You are welcome sir! Thank you for letting me know :)

I installed the cc-bec on my losi lmt10 yesterday and it gets burning hot. Any idea why that happens?

[@RcAVENTURE.V.F.R]

nice brother, thank for sharing 👍 👍 👍 excellent

[@Guarenovsky]

hi! does it means that, after setting the voltage to 6,5 v no matter how many lipo cells (4s) i use it will regulate it to that current so i dont burn my esc?! is that right?!

[@1967illya]

Yes, that is correct!

[@Guarenovsky]

ok! cool! so my esc is capable of 3s, and by the time i don’t hav anyof those yet i do have 2x 4s laying around with no use, and i have that dingy installed on a score trophy truck from axial. so if you are telling me that it is possible that will be greaaaat! please confirm that to me?! thanks in advance

[@JCRC]

I just remembered I need a BEC :)

[@1967illya]

Well, i am a strong defender of using a Bec. Those who say it is not necessary, have never used one... So get yours! :)

[@JCRC]

Hay illya zou dat mij ook helpen voor mijn auto, om dat ales ik met de servo draait en voor ruit rij dan stop hij en dan gij te rug voor uit

[@olds97lss]

Do you know if you can use the field card to connect the 10A BEC to a PC to change the voltage or do you have to have the usb link? I know I can use the field card to program an ESC (I've done that), but wasn't sure if it could also serve as the "castle link" when programming a BEC. I haven't bought the BEC yet, just trying to figure out if I need to get the usb link too.

[@1967illya]

Hey Bryan. The Program card is not for changing the bec settings unfortunately. For that, you do need the usb link.

[@olds97lss]

Figures. So, a $25 BEC then costs $45 to program. Thanks for the info.

[@1967illya]

True... Yet if you run more CC bec's and maybe a CC Esc it will "repay" itself.

[@olds97lss]

The ESC I have is a CC, the SCT SV3, which doesn't allow for adjusting the BEC voltage. I got a response from castle regarding the card. It can be used to program the BEC when connected to a PC. It just can't program it directly without connecting to the PC/app. The field card works as a "castle link" when connecting to a PC. I've used it to adjust the ESC on my E-Revo directly and connected to a PC, which is why I didn't want to have to buy the USB link as well. I already ordered an alternate 6A BEC... if it doesn't work, I'll just get the castle. I was impatient. lol

[@johnbasterson7938]

@@olds97lss late but in pretty sure the card would act as a link for the bec to hook to a pc/app.

[@clementfpv5054]

It's such a rip off, 30$ for the programing card, I'm sure it's a basic FTDI breakout
