Default Radio system and Motor question

Hello. I wish to power a model with an S-600 electric motor, 7.2 to 9.6 volts, but the radio system I own works with 4.8v (receiver and servos). What do I need to power everything with just one 7.2 battery package? I know that I need an ESC with BEC, but I do not have a clue how to make the above. Thanks or your help!

Your battery hooks up, through a shutoff switch, to your ESC, there is a BEC connector out of your ESC that goes to your RX (channel 3 on my Futabas) the BEC circuit in your ESC adjust the voltage internally. There is one other lead from the ESC and of course that goes to your motor.

Ch 3 in Futaba operates the throttle as well as powering the Rx and may need 'reversing'
