Well I pulled the dual connection off the ESC and extended the wires by soldering on some additional 10g wire using a butt joint solder splice and then heat shrinking it. After that I covered with the braided sleeve and shrinked the ends with proper colors. Then went ahead and made myself a little y splitter with a spark arrestor on the one side. This should give me more options and allow me to run just 1 battery in the future if I get any 6s batteries later.

I also got my PPS switchplate delivered on friday but when I tried to install I noticed that the supplied hardware was the wrong size and the new screws diameter was to large. I'm a bit confused by that since I am still using the stock ESC fan that came with the castle ESC. So now I need to source some proper screws to mount to the ESC. I may go ahead and upgrade the fans now since I'm looking to add a few to the motor right now also.

and of course one of the main reasons we get into this hobby... for all the smiles. The Cousins got out this weekend enjoying some awesome bash weather.
