Your lipos have XT90 and the ESC has IC5. Try plugging them in. Some have said they will work together.
 
I tried and it will not go in at all. They are shaped alike but there's plastic blocking the plug from going in.
Yep you either need to swap the ESC or the lipo ends. Hope you can solder.
 
I had the LHS make me some adapters to get me going, it won't be an issue. Eventually I got more batteries and decided to solder EC5's on everything. It wasn't terribly hard... I used a blowtorch to melt the solder in the terminals (which works so well!), since they go in the housing after they've been soldered. There are lots of youtube videos on the topic
 
Ok, I will definitely YouTube some videos and try it out... thank you
 
Here's one:

Thats such a great video. Why do I over-think everything? This is outstanding and I just haven't had enough heat. I'm now ordering the butane soldering kit that's been in my cart for a year.
