bec on cc3d?

[Joeltheguy]

I will install a simple single axis gimbal on cc3d for my mobius soon. would I gain anything from using a bec on a 9g servo, or should the cc3d power it just fine? I'm familiar with rc electronics as I've been doing land vehicles for 15 years, but I've only been doing quads for a few months.

using the servo connected to the receiver should be fine to power it,, and then you can just remove the signal wire and connect to you cc3d if that's what is needed to control pitch servo.

Does that make sense to you,,

Does the cc3d have gimbal control ?

Yeah, the cc3d does have gimbal control. I suppose it does make sense to use power off of the receiver, but the board powers the receiver so wouldn't it be easier to run it off of the board?

Just power it from the CC3D and plug the signal wire to channel 6 of your receiver and map channel 6 to one of the variable knobs on your transmitter.

I want it on the gimbal control so it tracks with my pitch, just for recording. I have another quad for fpv.
