Hi!

I buy an brushless motor that come with ESC controller. And ofcourse I buy an LiPo battery (11.1V - 3900mAh).

So, can I connect the whole circuit WITHOUT the second battery for the servos???

My ESC have:
- 3 wires for motor,
- 2 wires for battery,
- and the wires for receiver.

The whole scheme is like the picture.

Thanks!

Yes you can. The power coming to the receiver from the ESC will power the servos.

Hatty thanks!
So I just need to plug it to receiver and thats it???
Do I plug it to a 1. channel in or to battery in (on receiver)???

If I plug it to a first channel (throttle channel) then the input for the battery (on receiver) stay empty???
Am I correct???

Thanks!

You plug it in to your throttle channel which is #3 for mine, but yours may be different.

Yes! sorry it's third (the throttle channel)...
Ok, very simple, but just want to be shure...

So the battery input (on receiver) will stay empty???

-pkh-

Yes, when using an ESC with a built in BEC (Battery Eliminator Circuit, otherwise known as a voltage regulator), you leave the battery input on the receiver empty. Power and ground is common among all receiver inputs, so you can power the receiver from any channel input. In fact, to save space/money, many receivers don't have a dedicated battery input, so you must power them from one of the channel inputs (see photo below, note that channel 6 is also the battery input, so you must use a Y-connector to use all 6 channel inputs AND connect a receiver battery).

Ok!

Thats all I need to know!

Thanks for helping!
