I have a AR620 receiver and am trying to figure out how to connect a Banggood 36" LED light strip. It pulls 136mA. Can I plug it in to the BAT port on the receiver? Or possibly port 5 or 6 that I am not using? Flying the Simple Cub, 4 channel.

I'm pretty sure you can just plug them in to any of the ports. I have LED light on my bushwhacker and I have them plugged into one of the AUX ports.

Your max current is limited by the BEC inside your ESC, and all the +/- pins on the receiver are just connected together in parallel.

I plug my lighting into the balance plug on my 3s batteries. That way I can run lights rated at 12VDC, which draw less current.
