    TBS using the ESC's BEC??

    Hi guys,

    i couldnt help notice on your zephyr build videos, you seemed to be using the esc's bec to power your RX. after reading many forum about ground loops and this being a major source of a loop....haven't you created one? I only ask as to gain more knowledge in the setup of my own gear.

    cheers

    You only get ground loops when you use RTH or stabilization

    EDIT: Whoops. If you link the EzUHF and the EzOSD then you have a loop, provided that there is no optocoupling

    yes you open up a ground loop. it's not a problem though if the remainder of your system is nicely wired.
