You gotta use Flux to get good results with soldering,I put it on wire ends and it sucks it right up.
Yupwhat the heck.
How should I do this? cut off the end of existing motor wires then solder the bare wires together? right?
poop i didnt use flux on those 3s packs.
Dangit, how does flux work? you just rub the wire in it?
If you use shrink tubing on it make sure you put it on the wire and slide it out of the way.Ye
Yup

You’re a lot luckier than me with that mesh type of wire insulation on that blx motor. Motors like that usually eat through the insulation where it’s bent when I run them.I just did that to install the blx 2050kv into my ERBEv2. The adapters I had were castle 6.5mm -> 3.5mm, then genius me bought 3.5mm ->4mm and 30 seconds after installing it... I was like, this is dumb, so I ordered some 4mm bullets and replaced the 3.5mm bullets with those to at least only have two connections instead of 3. Then I used a long bit of heat shrink on each wire to help keep them all connected, then put zipties around the bundle of 3:
Won't know how it does until I run it. Seemed fine on the bench on 6S.
Hm... it's new. The castle motor I removed had eaten through it too. I had attributed it to the battery connectors smacking it all the time before I fastened them down. I'll have to check my outcast to see if they are worn at the bend. Do you think it's just from vibration and the wires eating through it from the inside?You’re a lot luckier than me with that mesh type of wire insulation on that blx motor.

I like the idea of those. Saw them somewhere recently, maybe here, and considered tossing some in my work van. ??Kind of funny... I bought these a while back:

Thought about using them, but with the motor wires being so short, I didn't want to fiddle with it. Probably $25 of useless crap I'll never use.

No you have to solder two connectors to run 2 baterriesI will keep the bullet connectors, I am just going to solder male bullet connectors to 10 gauge wire with enough length then solder that to the motor wires after I cut the short ends off the motor. Sound right?
I need to also solder the dual batter connectors so I run 2 packs at once. Is there one I can just buy and solder to the esc wires?
