Default RE: Exceed F/A-18C Problems Prep

So ........I shouldnt run into a BEC problem? Last thing I want to do is go in there and cut the wrong damn wire. Ive tried to ask several people I know, including the local guru on what to do, and the procedure of replacing a new BEC or running its own battery pack and cutting one wire out, just seemed so confusing. Ive never run into this problem. This is my first EDF jet, however Ive been flying for some time. I know it has some respectable power, as Ive seen in videos. I know Im ready to fly this plane, and I cant wait to unbox it, Im just a little unclear on some of the internal guts of these things.

Also...Ive read that numerous people have experienced structural failure with the fan blades/inlet area. Is there a chance that the motor or fan itself is not fastened securly enough? People say they power p and chunks of black plastic have shot out the rear. I guess I could just unscrew the compartment and evaluate the ducted fan unit to make sure its in working order. Any other suggestions on this plane?? Thanks again.
