One goal of bringing up the voltage conversation regarding the BUG activation is that the stock BEC on some equipment including the Freewing 1700mm A-10 PNP jet is set for 5V. Since the manual that comes with the BUG states that it will activate at 5V and lower, the stock BEC may (and likely) not be sufficient to use with the BUG. If a voltage drop is seen during times of dropping down the gear with full flap input simultaneously, etc., the BUG may activate too often since the BEC voltage and BUG activation are too close. That's why going with a different external BEC that can be adjusted to a higher voltage than the BUG activates, such as the voltage you stated as example (5.5V), may be a more consistent and safer bet to keep the BUG from being activated when a person doesn't want it to be. As long as the voltage chosen for the external BEC is still safe for the rest of the electronics in the chain, it should be good to go.
