I have a 5 volt, 1.5 amp external switching BEC that I will test this weekend, hopefully. About half the size(or less) than the UBEC and it plugs inline(controllers plugs into this unit, which plugs into the receiver). The price on this would be about $20 vs. the $35 for the UBEC(6 volts, but must be soldered in). I prefer 6 volts myself, but if this works well enough, it is a less expensive, easier option for those in the need.
