Matek System's Servo PDB board can serve as a convenient connection between your stripped-down receiver and your servos. And because it has a high-input-voltage, variable-output-voltage BEC onboard, it can also serve as a convenient power source feeding high-voltage servos. Many high-performance ESC's still include fixed-voltage or standard-voltage BECs. Liberate your servos!
Yet another use is to remotely step-down pack voltage in large aircraft (graphic below). Take care not to over-draw the available BEC amperage when used in larger aircraft.
Note: This board does not decode S-BUS or any other type of serial encoding. It simply passes through PWM servo commands from a Receiver or Flight Controller.
