So im building my first trex.
The build is going ok so far, but i have a few concerns and thought i would ask some of the people here who no doubt have already dealt with these issues. Any help is appreciated.
1. I was looking at the diagram here [link]http://www.trextuning.com/electrical-setup.php[/link] and moused over the ESC, it says i need a seperate BEC if using >3C or a digital servo. My tail servo is digital (s9650), my esc is a CC35.
So do i need a seperate BEC, will my digital servo burn out my esc?
2. I have the dx6 parkflyer system, i had everything setup and working well, however i rebound the tx/rx to set my own failsafe and the pitch and roll axis now seem reversed on the heli. Left stick moves the swash right, foward stick moves back. Seems a bit odd, I imagine i can just reverse all the servo directions in the TX but thought it was wierd.

thanks for the help, i also figured out my tx problem, so ill share incase anyone else has this problem.
I think the servos reversed when i turned ccpm on in my dx6 tx.
So i ended up having to reverse the servos, but then my pitch mixing was going backwards, forcing it down instead of up. to fix that i just set the CP6 setting to the inverse of the existing setting, i changed from +60 to -60. flys great now
