A great wiring diagram, thanks to Georgia Tech’s RoboJackets Wiki can be found here: Diagram
Note that the BL-Heli XSD20A ESC would be used in this instance as the orange element in the wiring diagram: as a controller to a brushless weapons motor. All controllers are driven from the same battery, as you can see from the diagram. This model doesn’t have a BEC (Battery Eliminator Circuit), which allows all elements to be run from a single battery. Power to the receiver can be supplied by the motor ESCs or by a separate dedicated BEC circuit.
