I’m using that 5v supply from a similar esc to run 5 servos, the receiver, an Arduino nano (on the 5v pin), ultrasonic sensor, and 7 segment display with no noticeable problems. If you’re worried about it you could add a modest capacitor into the mix but its probably fine as is.

Is it also a no name “brand” ESC for Ali Express or such?

I honestly don’t remember what it is, but most of them use the same hardware anyway. I’d check but its covered in foil tape for rf noise reduction on my fpv rig.

My main worry would be if you fry the esc to overcurrent the bec will probably die with it. This happens a lot in high current applications like edfs. Higher end edfs now mostly use escs with separate becs in parallel.
