Powering ACM Strategy

Posted by Adam Rivera on July 2, 2011 at 9:14am

Hello all,

I have a pretty simple question (hopefully). I am currently building an octocopter and none of my ESCs have a built in BEC, so I am going to run a CC BEC Pro (20A max). My question is this: If I use the BEC to power my Futaba Receiver, and then connect the servo outputs from the Futaba Rx to the ACM, wont the Futaba Rx power then be powering the ACM? Or will I need to also connect the ACM to the BEC in addition to connecting the Futaba Rx?

Thanks in advance,

Adam

i would connect it directly to apm, it will power your reciever

sure, you can do it the other way round, doesn't really make a difference
