Nice heat shrink job!All done... now the Kyosho body will fit
I’ll look into that next project coming soon hopefully delivers tomorrowNice heat shrink job!
I've been using "Liquid Tape" and its amazing.
If you can do it in 3-4s on these wires you are doing very good and very low risk of damaging anything. I couldn't do it in 3s to be honest , wires are simply too thick. Granted I've never timed myself. I have seen many ruined boards by applying too much heat over time.@jkflow im curious on why you wouldn’t want to solder onto the esc. What would the difference be between soldering wires on an esc compared to soldering say an IC onto a pcb? If those components can withstand the heat for 3-4 seconds, why would an esc not be able to?
A quality soldering station will be a game changer. Just be mindful about not inhaling the fumes, it's easy to forget when your focus is on the project itself. Spend a little extra for something that has adjustable temp, you'll be happy you did.I really need to get soldering iron because I'm tired of paying people to do it for me.
Man that fume it’s that last nose hair in back fk that burns ? mine desk fan would help alsoA quality soldering station will be a game changer.

Your not alone bro ? I don’t have none of that And I can’t hold this damn iron for s***. Doing something so small and semi perfect can’t keep steady for poop unless I’m resting my arm on somethingConsider yourself lucky if you have steady hands. Everything else can be fixed through practice and good gear/solder. I picked up a TS100 last week. My old rig is on top, the 100 is on the bottom. It powers off an adapter or a lipo pack and has a temp readout and adjustment right on the device. My problem is horrible hand tremors that I’ve always had, but has been getting progressively worse. Makes everything from painting, cutting, soldering, writing, and drinking and eating a nightmare. I’ve been losing the ability to do a variety of tasks as I get older and shakier.
