Re: By biggest endeavor yet!

I've been trying to find an Align BEC only because I have an Align ESC but cannot find an Align BEC over 6amps. Is there such a thing? And if not, can I just match the CC PRO with the Align ESC?

I'm running the Align 2in1 on my 600 nitro. Works great. I think they have one that is just the BEC and not the glow igniter as well.

Yes they are completely different independent circuits. The one does care about the other. If you use an ESC that has a BEC then remove the red wire that would normally be your ESC controller wire. So that ESC wire that you run from the ESC to FBL controller. Just pop the red wire out.

You do this so that there aren't two sources trying to supply the FBL controller. You don't want one fighting the other.

I was told this on another forum. :(. Is it true? Do I need to return the 600MX 510kv for a 1225 kv model for my 6s system??

If you plan to power it with a 6S pack then go for the 1225 and a 9T pinion, use your ESC in the governor mode and start with a throttle setting of 80%.
The 510KV motor is for use with 10S to 12S packs.

I don't know that I would go all the way down to a 9T pinion, but yes, you will need the higher KV for the 6s packs.

Or, you can send back the batteries and ESC and go HV on this thing... Just sayin'

Nope. YOur BEC (which should be able to withstand 44.4 volts) will still give you 6vDC. I should quit giving you move ideas lol.

Well NOW I've thrown something new into the mess. I just picked up the NAZA-H with the optional PCU (bec) and GPS so this is all new to me so any tips will be appreciated although I've been told it's pretty straight forward as long as I follow ALL the manuals.

I have never setup a NAZA before, but there are some on here that have. They set it up for a quad though, nto a heli, but I can't see that it would be much different.

I think one person, Paul maybe, has the naza-h and did the setup on here somewhere. I vaguely recall seeing it on here.

Re: By biggest endeavor yet!

Crap...NOW I'm being told that the replacement motor (Align 600mx 1220kv) on my 6s batts will spin my blades at 2400 when it should be 1850. Any of this accurate?? Thanks!
