Wow this is old
Yes i got it flew it a few times then took it off and sold it didnt like how hot it would get
I didnt run a bec with mine but the link /chip you call it should be for programing the bec
It should have a red and a black lead that you solder to the ESC battery leads
the link /chip you call it should be the same thing as a Castle link and it plugs in to the rx lead
May be an old post but your history wit this product may be to my heli's benefit. Yea, I have read that the Talon 90 tend to fail. This is why this system will have the external CC BEC PRO. This should help to keep the system cool. The degree of this build is a new venture for me not to mention programming ESC and BEC. Not something I have done before. Fortunately, there is a good amount of Info available however I only trust a select few resources based on my experience and research. I have found your recommendations to be consistently on the mark.
Question: the Align servos I am using DS615 (cyclic) and DS655 are rated at 4.8-6.0 volts. align recommends Talon 90 BEC be set to 6.0 volts. Do you think I should set the BEC PRO to 6.0 volts as well? BEC PRO default is 5.1 volts.
Thanks and have a great weekend!!!

The Castle Creation ESCs are great. I love my Ice 100A. The data logging allows you to see exactly what was happening during your flight. They have just released the new range of Edge escs, so take a look at them too. But the Talon looks like a great choice for the 550.
Hi Lee, ( I posted an identical reply with Super Bad's post in this thread). I am building a Trex 550E DFC with Talon 90 ESC and an external BEC PRO.
