Do you really need a BEC or better ESC for your servo? Volts and amp outputs measured

[@OswaldBeef]

Thank you kind sir, you deserve an award from the KZbin Rc community for this one!

[@RCReviewChannel]

welcome

[@HolmesHobbies]

Another great vid! The big problem long term is the heat created inside the internal BEC. Sure, a stock esc may output the amperage required, but amps are what create torque and create heat. On a trail run, many of the lower cost ESCs will either overheat or completely fail from the constant load that rock crawlers present. It's not so much "if", but "when".

[@RCReviewChannel]

Great input. I can actually measure this. Stall a servo 100x and measure the temp of an an ESC. Make it smoke!!!

[@HolmesHobbies]

@@RCReviewChannel yes, either measure the temp giving 1 second bursts every 5 seconds (or whatever duty cycle you choose) or simply watch the amp stability and voltage output over a few longer cycles. It won't be pretty for any of them except maybe the mamba and axe. Not sure what the axe really has inside, but the mamba is pretty stout BEC.

[@multirotorfpvuk]

Great test! Thanks for doing this! I think it would be good to run the test again, and measure the voltage from the BEC at the same time, as this may drop as the BEC approaches the max current output. You never know it might make for some interesting results!

[@Tom_5438]

Now that was a cool test, I always wondered what the BEC on my 1080 could handle

[@RCReviewChannel]

There we go!

[@rcandcnc9684]

Amps shown in test do not mean that your BEC circuit can handle those amps as you do not know how much safety margin manufacturer gives at rated amps. 1080 result would make me very nervous for this servo as it is set to 7,4V according to video description but can only put out 4,5A that is close to 4,4 at AE-5 set to 6V. So massive voltage drop for 1080 and AE-5 is rated to 3A so that is overloaded in this test as well. Measured amps drawn from the BEC do not give any indication about how much it can handle.

[@JViello]

I hate to be "that guy", I really do BUT...there is a *fundamental flaw* here that means you can take these numbers and toss them in the trash! You are measuring only *1* side of the equation therefore missing how much total *power* these ESC's can put out. It's what causes people to get brownouts when a servo stalls. Amperage may shoot up to 5 amps, but voltage may dip to 3 volts. Generally in these type of circuits, amperage goes *UP* as voltage goes *DOWN* . One cancels out the other. You need to measure both input *voltage and amperage* and calculate total *wattage*. Watts = voltage x amperage. Watts is total power output. So that ESC putting out 4 amp could be at 6 volts and put out 24 watts. (6x4=24) While the 5 amp ESC drops to 4 volts and only puts out 20 watts (5x4=20) and actually has LESS output! Edited for "bold" formatting.

[@jordanhowell3870]

im so glad you know crawlers so well

[@seanhamilton4175]

This is the sort I've testing I love! Nice to know that the 1080 internal BEC can do a pretty good job out of the box. In the test for the Power HD LW-20MG you did, it drew 4.3a so I'm happy my 1080 can cope. If someone is installing a more power hungry servo, why not spend a few more $$ and get an external BEC anyway :)

[@RCReviewChannel]

Right on. Glad to help.

[@DanielStinebaugh]

Super helpful as I was on the fence about needing a BEC or not. I'll still probably go that route so I have the ampere overhead to add light bars, winches etc down the road, but to be able to upgrade my servo right off the esc is great to know!

aa might be a 2year old vid but been watching your youtube for a long time was a main for nitro's but ever since X-maxx's came out they just seem the best all rounder for me since i was one for worrying about the ESC's or lipo batteries catching a light 🔥but i think we all can agree on they gotten way better then they used to be ;p

[@HappyDude1]

very interesting, i have a new bronco and you were right after a few charge ups the servo is starting to die :( so the stock ESC is generating 3.5 amp is that good enough for the upgraded servo from traxxas ?

[@coltentodhunter7551]

this one got you a few subscribers I bet!

[@danielkonrad1444]

Man this channel is so awesome. Thank you for all your efforts. This stuff is so helpful. But i think you would have to use a much higher amp user( sorry, english is not my first language) because if that servo only pulls around 5 amp, none of this Devices will Show if it can put out more. That castle bec for axample claims up to 10 amp Max output. And if a 1 amp rated Esc gives almost 5,what would for example the axe Esc be caoable of?

[@seanhamilton4175]

You'd have to find a servo that drew that kind of current. He's already used the Savox 2290 which is the most power hungry servo they've tested and it only takes 5a

[@idworkhard]

Question: if the BEC states 10A but the servo needs 1.5A, does that mean that the BEC is going to send 10A or servo is going to draw what it needs only, i.e. 1.5A?

[@rixyrohaizie]

same concept as motor too. its takes what its need only.

[@mikekins6545]

It would help me if you refer to voltage output of each ESC along with AMPS produced.

[@RCReviewChannel]

Will do that. We have the wiring and meter for that now. Will show torque output too.

[@kvincentg]

What volts were all the different ESC/BEC running at? I might of missed thar on the video... It would be nice to know the proper Amp draw by Voltage

[@Spazz-x85]

Now with the scx6 out could you do this with some 1/5 servos and compare to the stock one?

[@667Gurba]

This was really illuminating. Thanks! 👍

[@1elaijah]

Okay now you are putting in some work 😁! Creative knowledge 😉

[@ptalbany]

the one advantage I found with a external BEC is heat!!! ESC’s with built-in BECs are Linear type and Linear BEC reduces the voltage from the main Lipo to 5V by converting the excess voltage into heat. This is not a very efficient way of voltage converting

[@motorbreathjz]

yep its a no brainer to get a external bec.. cheap and way more powerful.. and even more efficient if getting a bec bypass adapter

[@Jax6104]

Informative video. But, what's up with the grey body over your left shoulder?

[@nukedathlonman]

One other consideration for BEC and amp draw be it an external one or the internal one of an ESC is the combination of all electronics being powered by the BEC. I had a combination of one servo that was a little too power hungry with only a receiver being powered by the ESC in a touring car that had problems on these lines. The built in BEC of the ESC wasn't up to the task of providing power to the servo as well as the receiver. What would happen is the servo would cause the BEC to brown out (voltage would drop too much to try and keep up with amp draw) which would cause the receiver to glitch out from lack of power. I could negate the problem somewhat with a capacitor, but even then I would run into brown out situations (the combination was a Savox servo, Spektum receiver, an a Speed Passion receiver on 50C 4000mah 2S LiPo). I ended up replacing the servo with a different brand that had similar specs but lower current draw to fix the problem.

[@dylanwhite6539]

I was using the traxxas blue coreless servo and found while the esc handled it, it got HOT. After moving to a castle bec for servo power I noticed much lower temps.

[@PFinkoloTL87]

Thanks for sharing this. I've already watched your video when it aired. I might have a misconception in relation to servo amp draw and built in BECs... Will an amp hungry servo burn an integrated BEC? Or will the BEC just provide as much current as its limit allows (which is a built in safety feature)? This way the current will stay in a safe range? Or is the current the lesser problem while the generated heat is the dangerous issue? This is the main question. Example is my setup: Mamba Monster X 6s, integrated BEC has 8 A peak, voltage can be adjusted. My servo is a brushless one rated at max. 555 oz or 40 kg at 8.4 V. Planning to run it at 5.5 or 6 V on the integrated BEC. Torque would be around 31 kg at 6 V. Still crazy fast on 6 V. Will it burn out the integrated BEC? Does this combination NEED an external BEC? I ran this combination previously on an external BEC, which can put out 8.4 V at 8 A. It powered the servo directly, bypassing the receiver. I'm running this in an 8th scale truggy, not in a crawler.

[@walttrowbridge7687]

Thank you for guys like you to help US save money, or build it right the first time! One thing I'd like to see you monitoring the voltage output when your doing the amp test on the BEC's along with the amp drawl. That way we can see the voltage sag as well when the BEC is getting pushed to its amperage limits. Course I'm probably one of the few people that would ask that..... after all what we experience in the form of "brownouts" or "glitches" from the voltage inconsistencies because of high loads. Course if you check out the video of my charging station on my channel, you'll see I'm a bit of a electrical nerd, who likes data. Considering I do alot of industrial electrical and robotics troubeshooting/repairs I'm very into that kinda stuff.. just not the serious math 😂🤣

[@mikephilpott8541]

I know this sounds like a stupid question but I’m going to ask anyway. How do you know when you need a external bec? I run mamba x with a power hd servo. Plus I have a bunch of lights. Everything seems fine I just don’t want to hurt anything. Oh and the truck is a trx4. Thank you!!

[@RCReviewChannel]

If your servo draws way more amps than your ESC can ever provide, then a BEC is needed. Or a more powerful ESC. In your case, your ESC provides about 8 amps and your servo draws about 5 amps. So you are way good. For folks who have a servo that draws 6-8 amps, and have a stock ESC that provides, 3-4 amps, then they need one. Our series of servo tests and ESC tests now actually show what these devices draw.

[@mikephilpott8541]

Would the settings on the radio make any difference, like end point and duel rate to the load on the servo.

[@andrewmayo4069]

With the new Fusion SE combos, how do we consider adding a BEC? Do the 2 in 1 motor options put out enough amps for upgraded servos or do we still need a separate BEC? Running a Traxxas TRX4 with the stock ESC currently. Thanks!

[@ledchickenfpv7164]

I'm trying to find my way in this new world after a long break from RC cars since racing 12th scale road cars back in the mid 1980s. It looks like the kind of car I used to race is called a pan car now. I've bought a couple electric cars and just added an HSP 1/10 nitro rally car to my stable most recently. I've upgraded to an FS-GT5 TX/FS-BS6 RX combo and am working on installing a Dsservo DS3225SG to replace the stock steering servo, and decided to watch a few videos to demystify everything a bit, which led me here. My HSP 94177, being a nitro car, doesn't have an ESC and everything is now wired into the FS-BS6 receiver, but now I'm wondering if I should be using a BEC, or if a BEC is more important with electric motored cars where the motor might cause the voltage to sag low enough to keep the servo from working as it should? The other thing puzzling me at the moment is whether I have to remove a bunch of screws and remove the battery/receiver box to get the servo wire through the little hole at the bottom, or if I'm overlooking an easier way to get around the gap between the chassis plate and radio box being too tight to finagle the servo connector through the hole. I'm a little apprehensive about removing a lot of screws at once since I don't yet know what might unexpectedly fall apart into multiple pieces and become a pain to figure out how to reassemble. 😉 Then again, I guess that's how you learn and become more comfortable with the whole car, so I'll convince myself to "send it" momentarily. 😉😁👍

[@timothybarnard3407]

Any chance you can run this test again using some of the more popular esc's? Specifically interested in the the Copperhead 10 using a direct power servo such as the 3Bros G11 or G14

[@CasperRc81]

You should make a jig that will hold the tires that way your getting the real amp draw with the use of a motor as well. Nice work tho. Should set up the castle bec to a base 6.0v lock the wheels turn the wheels to one side full lock and see what the system is drawing.

[@RCReviewChannel]

Holds a tire? That would introduce so much more inconsistencies. All we really need to do is run the motor to see if it affects AMP output of the ESC.

Please listen to my question!! I have a power hd lw25. I have a hobbywing 1080. If i set my bec to 7.4 volts do i still have to install a bec for the servo?

[@shadow7796]

I usually do some turning while moving forward, and see how much the throttle "drops off" when I'm activating the servo from left to right. The Axe system I currently have keeps up pretty good . I do have a bec on standby(Hey Ok brand) in case I want to use it to keep the temps down on the esc , it's only rated for 5 amps and I've had it turned up to 12v when adjusting it. The version 2 Axe system claims to be able to make 6.0 amps @ 7.4v to the servo, which is one amp more than the original or version 1.

[@skirmich]

How did the mamba X out-performed the Power Supply amperage draw? Isn´t that the Control number??

[@RCReviewChannel]

We credit that to the vortex. The Mamba X is using big voltage I believe. 7.4 volts.

[@CarminesRCTipsandTricks]

Now THAT'S enlightening!!! 😳 So I wonder why so many people get brownouts with their Servos running through the ESC??

PoorManRC from what I know the internal bec over heats. And he needs to test with the wheels bound up in rocks. It will pull even more amps with the use of the motor.

Is there a difference in the amount of torque that the servos are putting out with the esc/bec compared to the control?

[@RCReviewChannel]

For sure yes. If it can't draw the amps, it has less torque and it stalls sooner. We didn't want to display it since we stalled the servo so much for filming that it got hot and was decreasing in torque due to heat.
