Powering Proffie V2.2 Via Voltage Regulator

Proffieboards
1

Hi, I am looking to power the Proffie board from a Voltage regulator or BEC.
This will enable me to add a 7.6v battery and power some neopixels at a greater voltage.
I have looked at the schematic and can see 5V input to diode connected to U60 onboard regulator.
I believe there is no problem with this other than the possibilty of swithcing noise from non linear regulator.

Any reply would be greatly received.

Iā€™m not sure if hooking it up to the 5V pad is the best idea.
I would just hook up the regulator to the BATT+ pad, which can handle 5V just fine.

Thank you for the reply proffezorn.
I will go trough the BATT+ pad.

Grateful thanks for open sourcing and passing your hard earned knowledge to everyone. You are an inspiration to myself and many others.
