“I needed to power the receiver on my Seagull Super Chipmunk (Spektrum AR8360T+), but I didn't want to use the BEC that is internal to my ESC. This airplane already had high wing-loading (34 ounces/square foot), and this UBEC weighs only 51 grams. I could have used a two-cell LiFe battery, but for any decent capacity, the weight would have been 102 grams. I also like that it's super easy to set the output voltage by pressing the button provided (no fancy programming required). I also like that there are two pairs of red and black output wires which provides less resistance between the UBEC and my receiver. So far, I’m a happy camper.”

“I have been using this brand of UBEC for many years now without any issues. I do like the dual power leads and plug one into the RX and the other into the Aura 8 and also use a jumper wire between those units for redundancy as per Flex recommendations. I also like the choices of voltage output to bump up the servo torque when needed for large airplanes.”

“I installed this on my Sig 110” Rascal to power its 4 servos, using my 2, 5s Lipos. The 10s set-up required a high voltage input UBEC. I’ve just flown it once and hope to fly it many more times in the years to come.”

“I use this SBEC on a 1/4 scale MEW Gull racer with a Gecko ESC on 8S power with 1/4 scale high torque/high voltage servos...No Problems at all!Easy setup and operation. Just push the button to get the voltage you want and it just works.You won't be disappointed.”

“This is a outstanding voltage reducer. No need for a programming mess with some bull$#!% programming catd... very simple . Has a button you can press on the unit to accommodate the voltage you need! I'm using this on my Freewing F14 King tech turbine conversion.”
