I have a 4 year old son that rides a 50cc quad bike.
This thing is capable of 45kmh but at present is governed enough so I can keep up with it at a run.
As he is getting better at riding I am gradually increasing the available power.
Before it gets to the stage that he can get away from me
I want to install an RC kill switch.
So my question, can I power an rx with a 1 cell lipo or will I need a 2 cell and bec.
I figure a full charged lipo at 4.2v is getting close to the 5v that most becs and ESCs run.
I have a low voltage relay coming that I can control with the rx to kill the ignition.
I suppose I could just try it but I am sure someone here will have done so already.
