Default Castle 10a BEC 10s on one pack

I was wondering if it is safe to wire the 10a blue bec onto a single 6s pack that is run in series like the way the BEC pro is often run off just one flight pack on a 12s setup. The Bec can take the 6s pack, but will it be affected by the 4s pack I have in series with it? I have it on the negative ground side of the esc like it should be with a bec pro, but I'm using a hobbywing esc. Is this just a castle thing or is the same for all escs?

Google the wiring diagram as long as you wire it so it one pulls from one of the batteries you're fine.

Are you sure the baby BEC is sufficient? Most 12s setups are on bigger helis, this BEC really isn't enough for the vast majority of today's builds.

Link in the first post applies to cc 10a bec with all escs not just castle. It will not be affected by the 4s pack.

What heli is this on? As mentioned earlier the CC10a can be marginal on 550+ setups.

I know the 10 amp bec couldn't handle 3 align ds615 and a ds655, full rx and bd3sx on my 600 went with the pro bec.

This is a 10s Goblin 380. I have run it on 6s and a homemade jumper and it works fine for now, but I have yet to try 10s.
