Alternatively some ESC's might output 5.5 or even 6v from their built in BEC anyway which could mean you could possibly the external BEC out. This ESC looks a good match: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...ontroller.html
I already have a spare CC 10A BEC that I plan on using at 6V. Thanks for the input. I should be able to have myself a nice little plane under $200 or close by the looks of it! Need to start filling those model slots on my DX8!
