Is it better to run your high speed cooling fans off the receiver or the ESC.esc is only 6v bec
Unless you have a separate bec/battery isnt this the same thing anyway? Receiver draws its power from the line to esc so power drawn from the receiver is just drawn from the esc bec? I guess it would then come down to convenience of cabling.

This ^^.

Also it depends on the esc. My MMX8s fan connector only turns the fan on during startup and when it reaches a heat threshold so it isn't running all the time. In that case I ran the fans to the esc bec output instead of its cooling fan output.

On my hobbywing escs I have the fans connected to the esc fan output since it is always on.
