Hi all
I know from installing a bec 6v those amp is capable of withstanding Microcontroller mr-c3024?
I installed 8 servo hsr-5990tg and 16 hsr-8498hb with a bec 6v 3amp but when they go under the stress all servo collapse! For me it is a problem of power for you?
Waiting for your responses and thanks to all!

The supply to the servo pins comes direct from the Power connector via the switch, so this should not limit the current. The switch is only 3A rated and the tracks are not capable of very high current.

I would say that a 3A BEC is not enough for all those servos, and would suggest a 10A BEC or split your servos over several BEC.

What battery are you using ? 7.4 Li Po ?

If you have space and flexibility on wiring you might supply the 5990 direct with battery voltage outside the BEC. They have more protectiion against overload.

i use 7.4 Li Po! but I do not have much space to give direct voltage battery outside the bec! hope that increase the amp the servo 5990 are also more responsive! coming to 24kg
