Soldering.

[Joseph F]

I don't know how to solder and an esc that I want to buy doesn't come with a connector does anyone have any ideas on what to do

 

[Overpowerrc]

Get a good soldering iron and amass plugs

Hobby shops will usually solder connectors on for a fee, or you could just teach yourself. ?

Buy a kit and practice, that's what I did. Buy extra solder and wire.

This is what I use

Cheap capable iron w/variable temp:

Decent solder (DON'T GET LEAD-FREE SH*T):

Multi tool for holding connectors (I tape mine down to the workbench):

And as you're learning I would recommend ordering extra connectors, some extra solder sponges and a soldering jig/helping hand. Watch a lot of YT guides too. Better to learn now than never ?

An rcproplus stand is a good option

University of YouTube and practice, don’t do anything valuable until you’re comfortable with it.

Just went to a hobby shop that I haven't been to before and they had a sign that said $2 per solder joint. Might find something similar where you are but learning how is good. You'll probably solder often in this hobby.
