The ESC does not have an BEC.  You will have to power the receiver with 
an external BEC (SBEC/UBEC) or receiver battery (I use a Thunder Power 
2s 730 with a Radio South 6.0v regulator).  You don't need to modify the 
ESC control cable, it works fine as is.

With our Plettenberg Xtra 25 and 30 motors, we have them all set in the 
0 position except number 4, which is in position 1.

You will have some downline braking.  We found it best if the idle RPM 
is set at 1000-1500RPM.  I have almost as much braking as I did with my 
YS 140DZ.

Our startup procedure: Full throttle on the stick with minimum throttle 
trim setting.  Plug in the battery, let the ESC beep a few times, then 
move the stick to bottom.  You are now armed with full and min throttle 
set.  Now move your throttle trim up (to middle on the JR 10X with trim 
rate set to 100%) to set your idle.  Note that there is a range of RPM 
(800 to 1700) where our motors don't start if they are stopped, but will 
continue running.  I set my idle trim with the motor stopped, blip the 
throttle to start the motor, then drop the stick back to the bottom and 
it will continue running at my desired idle.

-Adam, about 1/3 packed.
