Like its name implies, the 5-Amp Universal BEC can be used in any car and is specially designed to excel in gas-powered cars because of the high loads placed on the two servos. The 5-Amp BEC can easily run high-powered servos and is less likely to be over taxed because of its higher current rating. Optimized for 2-cell LiPo battery applications, this module is vital for use with brushed or brushless ESCs that don’t have a strong internal BEC to operate heavy-duty servos used in today’s rugged crawlers, 4WD Short Course Trucks, and other off-road and on-road vehicles, boats, airplane or nitro applications. Novak’s BEC Module allows the servos to operate at their optimum levels, prevent servo damage, and extend run times.
Does your servo cut out or feel weak? Does your radio system quit under load? Your ESC’s internal BEC may be straining and losing power.
Novak’s small and compact 5-Amp BEC module is easy to fit into any vehicle, and it will regulate the power to the receiver and servos to a consistent 6 volts and 5 amps. This circuitry is the same ultra-strong 5-amp BEC circuitry that is used in many of Novak’s ESCs.
The BEC module is equipped with an On/Off switch and a bright blue LED to indicate when the power is on. Heavy-duty 20 gauge silicone wire connects the BEC to the power source while a standard universal JST receiver plug delivers the power to the receiver’s battery slot.
The 5-Amp Universal BEC is ideal for users looking for a simple, easy-to-use, one purpose item. It is intended to be used as a receiver battery pack voltage regulator to power the receiver and servos in a nitro vehicle. It is also ideal for use with 2S Li-Po receiver battery packs.
The #5465 5-Amp Universal BEC (2S) was designed as a competition-based unit and does not feature any low-voltage cut-off.
