Thanks for the previous replies, and here is my next question. I am using a Castle Creations BEC Pro. When I plug in my Lipo the output voltage reads 7.15 volts. I understand that most servos and stuff are only rated to 6 Volts. Does this mean I need to go buy the 'Castle Link' for who know how much? Stuff like this bugs me, no wonder we buy cheap crappy stuff straight from China!

The Castle link is 25, they had coupons to get one free when you bought an ESC for the longest time.
That said, how are you measuring the output? If its the cable coming out of the BEC then thats probably not the actual output, hook it to the reciever and measure the power coming off the power bus as it may not be loaded properly by your meter.
