But what if the rx pack goes south? Then what is left is garbage. If a cell goes bad on the motive pack with a UBEC installed, you still have power to control the servos.

I am running a 1506 2D 6.71 gearbox on 10 GP 3300s with terrific results. 80 amps with an 18x10 prop in an electric Escape. It's smoother than a Hacker and I can talk to the people who built it on the phone. I had some range issues with a UBEC too. Now that I have a little 4 cell AAA pack in there the worry of motive pack failure is gone as are the range issues. If a cell goes bad in the motive pack or something else it's still a glider!

Rethinking, yes, of course! But one of those gizmos that replaces a rx battery saves a lot of weight. And yes, form factors when it comes to Li-Ion packs can make them impossible to use - but check around, there are many brands!
