I have a copter x v2 that I bought a year ago. I had bought the servo's, 50amp esc, motor and gyro. I have since gotten a good deal from a friend on some updates.

Align G780 gyro
Futaba s9650 tail
Hitek 65 metal gear servo's.
AR6100E

While testing the servo's i noticed the bec was really warm to the touch. Now i've read that they do get warm, but i'd like to get someone's opinion who is using a similar setup.

What bec are you using? Throw some 9257 gears in that 9650

It's the bec that is wired in the CopterX esc. No specs provided on BEC.

My align esc's would get warm sitting on the bench. But if that esc is getting hot I would put a castle bec on it. Better safe than sorry.
