A UBEC (Ultimate Battery Elimination Circuit) is basically a step-down voltage regulator. I feel that the jargon deserves a bit of explanation and history, so here goes:
In hobbyist grade remote control cars/planes/boats/etc. the electronics (receiver, speed controller, servos) need a power source. With engine powered craft, a small 6V battery pack was used to power the electronics. When electric motors became more popular, people wanted to use the large motor battery packs to power the low-power electronics. Typically, the electronic speed controller absorbed this function, and it became known as a Battery Elimination Circuit (BEC). With battery packs usually in the 9V-11V range, the electronics would probably need 5-6V to be happy.
Evidently there has been a push to use higher voltage battery packs (10V-25V), probably to take advantage of the brush-less motors. As a result, if the servos draw any appreciable current, a linear regulator would burn a lot of power. Obviously, when your flight/driving time is based on how efficiently you use your battery, a linear regulator is not what you want. Ultimate Battery Elimination Circuits are basically separate regulators (usually switch-mode) that deliver 5V-6V at hopefully high efficiency.
Now for the comparison. Your parts basically have two different end-use requirements. The Dimension Engineering product tries to match the form factor of a common linear regulator (7805). It would probably integrate better with any finished PCB you would make, and has a metal shell which hopefully shields EMI. The Hobbywing regulator is a more cost-conscious physical design, with a bit better efficiency spec. Honestly they're pretty much the same thing, so you could probably go with the cheaper one (Hobbywing).
There is no real difference between an analogue power supply and a digital power supply. They are separated because the digital power supply will supply current to digital switches which will switch on and off rapidly, putting large current demand spikes onto the power line, and hence cause momentary voltage drops and spikes on the line - these spikes are managed by decoupling capacitors local to the switching devices, and bulk capacitance at the power supply.
By keeping the two supply lines separate the circuit designer can isolate these current spikes from analogue circuitry which may be affected by small voltage drops - for example if the supply is used as a reference for an A2D.
Often the two supplies are fed from the same source, but the analogue supply may have a small RC or inductive filter in line to remove digital noise present at the source.
So yes, the 3.3v pin of the STM32F4-discovery board could be used as an analog power source. I would just add a small series resistor (less than 0.05V drop at the current you are using) and additional capacitance to ground - to give a first order low pass filter frequency of about 1KHz - or whatever you deem appropriate.

No it is not, RSSI only gives an indication of the received power. If you would have a large interfering signal on the same channel or an adjacent channel your RSSI value would be high yet the Received Power of the wanted signal would be low.
For proper receiver power measurements you will need a power meter or a spectrum analyzer.
