5.1v Stepdown regulator and Ar7000

[thedrill]

I am using The DX7 W the AR7000 receiver and an Align 6v bec I am also using the GY401 W/ A S9253 Servo that needs a lower voltage so I am using A step down regulator. My question is does it matter where I put the regulator? Can I put it between the receiver and BEC Between the receiver and the Gyro or the gyro and the sevo does it matter? :?:

Doesnt really matter, the gyro can handle the voltage, I run it between the gyro and servo but whichever is most convienient.

It matters!! don't put it between the BEC and the reciever, I'm sure it would burn up quickly.

It goes only between the gyro and servo, it can only handle the amperage of the one servo.

Thanks you guys :D I will put it between the gyro and servo :hug:

Oh I didnt see the option of between the BEC and reciever!

Usually the question is phrased should it be before or after the gyro, and in either of those cases it doesn't matter.

RTFQ I guess.
