View Full Version : Output of LEX ESC60A BEC question
Hi guys,
I am going to finish the setup of my Lepton now but i have a question about the LEX ESC output voltage! :?:
Is it output at 5V or 6V? I am using the Futaba servo 3150 and gyro GY502 with s9254 as the tail servo. Do I need to add a Step-Down Voltage Regulator between the ESC and the receiver or the gyro? :roll:
Cause I found that the 3150 servo is only accepted 4.8V on it's web page! :(
Please help! Very thanks!
Francis
Is there anybody who can help me?!
Thanks!

I tested the 3150 on my lepton with a 5.9V switching bec. Non problem. But 9254 won't like it. Maybe in fact. Becaus you are still far from voltage of a 5 cell batt (6V means 5 cells). You are much more closer from a freshly charged 4 cell batt. And the tail of the lepton will put lot less stress on the 9254 than a IC 50 class heli. So less work. I'm prety sure that a 9254 will resist to a 6V ESC in this conditions.
About the Hirobo ESC, test the voltage with a volt meter.... It's so simple. If it's 6V you won't blow anything just plugin it in the RX.

Hi rotodingo,
Thanks for your reply!
I am using a 4S lipo. I have connected a voltage tester and the ESC into my receiver this morning. It identified the voltage is about 5.0 to 5.5V so I think it OK for me not to put any resistor between the devices! :D
Very thanks again! :noteworthy

Francis,
Where do you fly? I also have a Lepton and just able to hovering around.
Hi Joli,
My Lepton is still under constructing! :wink: Cause I'm trying to finding a new job at the moment! :oops:
You know... no money ... no talk la! :arggg:
Francis :D
Francis,
Take your time. I need a new battery for my Lepton as the one I have now is getting FAT. What battery you have? :)

Hi John,
I have bought two from Radar! :)
It only costs me around HK$500 each! It's 4S3200mAh! :wink:
You can go there and check it! :wink:
Francis
Thanks, I will go there next Monday. I bought my lepton there.
Cheers/John :)
Great! Me the same!
But you better check it by phone first because they may be out of stock!
Francis :wink:
Francis, you are right. they only have the lower Amh batteries available. but I bought the Realflight G3.5 Simulator. :lol:
Hi John,
I do think they will have the stock later! Just wait for it!
Cheers,
Francis :wink:
