ESC External BEC preferences???

[Derek]

There isn't a section on the forums for "BEC" questions, so I put it here in the "ESC" section. Hope that's ok.

So...currently, I have two planes that I fly that have external Castle Creations 10amp BEC's. I find myself with the need for another BEC but I'm wondering if there are other "good" alternatives with a lesser price tag. I've seen many different size BEC's from Hobby King, as well as Grayson Hobby. What I'm wondering is this...when the occasion arises and YOU find yourself in need of a BEC....what brand do YOU all go with?

I have the cheap BECs (turnigy) on my foam jets, but my helis have CC 10A and CC Pro becs on them. I think for the price, they are the best option. There are better ones but much higher priced.

CC Pro BEC here. Heard good things about western robotics bec.

If I have to use an external BEC I use the CC 10 amp
