Default microbeast and external bec
If I upgrade my flybarred X5 to microbeast, will it draw more power and require an external BEC? I'm currently using the built-in. Thanks.

Against better judgment I have been using the built in BEC with NO problems. Now with version 3 on the microbeast power cunsumption has drasticly been reduced so I'm absolutly not going to use a BEC after the upgrade to V3.

I am using ds610 align servos on cyclic and a torque brushless 9188 on the tail, the 610's are very power hungry but I have had no problems so.., if it aint broke, I aint fixin it
