BEC Voltage Regulators
Keep your electronics safe, stable, and running strong. Castle’s Battery Eliminator Circuits (BECs) eliminate the need for separate receiver packs by regulating voltage directly from your main battery. Whether you're running high-torque servos, demanding flight controls, or multi-cell power systems, our BECs provide clean, consistent power exactly where you need it.
From compact rigs to extreme builds, Castle BECs are trusted across air, land, and commercial platforms — delivering precision voltage control and thermal reliability in any environment.
How do I know if I need an external BEC?
If you're experiencing brown-outs, glitching, or slow actuating servos it may be time to try an external BEC (Battery Eliminator Circuit). This scenario can occur in an application which uses high powered servos (or additional torque increasing modifications), where the ESC does not have an internal BEC, or the existing internal BEC is simply inadequate. A BECs primary purpose is to draw voltage from the motor batteries and drop it to a voltage level that is suitable for your receiver and servos. Simply put, an external BEC will provide clean and constant power and ensure you are not underpowered. Installing a BEC is pretty easy, assuming you don’t mind a little soldering. Our BECs include wiring instructions.

Footnotes:
1. Ratings are determined with a 5mph airflow at 25° C (77° F).
2. Adjustable Output Voltage may be set with Castle Link (sold separately).
3. Weight with full length wires, power wires may be shortened to save weight depending on application.
Still Not Sure Which BEC You Need?
Check your servo draw, input voltage, and regulator placement. When in doubt, always size for the peak amp load plus some overhead. For expert advice, visit our Support Page or contact Castle directly.
