How much can you run off your aux port

[drbusta50]

I already have a motor fan in the aux port of my receiver but I would like to add lights or maybe another fan set up. Has anyone had any issues adding multiple things to the aux port via a splitter. Will my ESC or motor or runtimes change?

No it shouldn't hurt anything. With my new larger fans I run them off there own lipo. Smaller 1300mah that plugs into the balance connector.

Look up the BEC current of your esc. The BLX100 can do 4A, the BLX185 on 3A. Minus the current of you servo and receiver. So plenty for low current things, insane fans can draw like 0.7Am so be careful with those

Ok that’s cool too. What I did was I took fans off old cheap ESC’s and made a dual fan radiator. I have the big rock body and there isn’t too much air flow so I mounted them to the rear window and made an opening. Just wanted to make sure I wasn’t over doing it.
