Hello there,
This is my first post, and I'm just a hobbyist, so I hope my question makes sense.
Please see the attached wiring diagram.
The switch (labeled "Turnigy"), is a switch that I will be controlling via a radio transmitter.
I will be using "Mode 1"
The BEC takes 7.4v from the battery, and steps it down to 5v.
What I would like is for the load device (labeled "Load") to receive no more than 5v. Based on how the manufacturer recommends wiring this, it seems that the Load will receive whatever the battery voltage is. Is that correct?
If so, that's not what I want. I need 5v to be the output of the switch as it's the max voltage the device can handle.
If I wanted to do this, would I connect the bottom wire on the switch to the positive lead on the output of the BEC (labeled "Power to Receiver")? Further, could I attach the drain (labeled "-" coming from the load) to the negative on the same side of the BEC (output)?
Please let me know if you have any questions or need clarification.
Thank you!
