Default Installing 2 Speed Controllers

Hi Folks,
I know this is an airplane forum but it is your smarts I am looking for.
I have a scale bouy tender ship and I am installing a Bow Thruster. I have a Reversible HiTec EZX-R speed controller I am planning on using for the bow thruster a speed 400 motor on 6 volts. The main speed 600 motors are using a HFX-R HiTec Speed Controller running 12 volts . This is how I think it should be connected.

Battery feed from speed controller to the 6 volt battery.

Reciever connector to desired channel

Output to the speed 400 motor on the Bow Thruster.

[&:]NOW?????? I do not need the 2nd speed controller to act as a BEC so do I cut the red wire on the wire going to the reciever

PLEASE HELP so I dont blow somthing

Don't cut the wire. It's fairly easy to slide an Xacto under the tab holding the red wire into the servo connector, slide it out, and tape it back.
