tekin rs pro and 1s lipo booster
Do I need to run a Lipo booster with a tekin rs pro, when the esc is in its 1s mode?
If I do, how/where does the Lipo booster get installed? I have just bought a turnigy one, but it has no instructions with it - but it looks like it would go inline between the servo and receiver? Is this correct?

Yes you do need to run a booster with the tekin rs pro.
The turnigy one doesn't fit inline with the servo, though the connectors suggest it does. The plug on the turnigy one goes into your receiver. I made a servo lead up with just red and black cables soldered to the +/-ve terminals of the speedo, which plugs into the booster. This allows quick removal, but keeps it neat. It works, but not great. I found i needed to also run a capacitor in the receiver also to stop servo brownouts. I don't run it any more as i got another speedo with a built in booster, however I did like the Tekin in 1S GT12. With an RC dynamics booster its excellent.

I believe you remove the red receiver wire from the ESC when running the booster. It should explain that in the booster.

I ran with the red wire in. but from memory it works also with it out, albeit a little slower than when in. Voltage measured was stil just over 5V.
