My old Weller 40 watt solder station is just tired and not doing the larger lugs and wires on 6S stuff, so the question is what does the ARRMA army recommend?
I would rather buy larger than needed but definitely not just enough.
I appreciate the input y'all.
 
That is a brand that I see at work alot,
I work in the automotive electronics industry and Hakko is prevalent here.
Thanks for the input gentlemen.
 
hakko... or if you don't want to spend heaps but get the job done.. heaps of 930 series etc copys around for stupid cheap and they work wonders
 
Yeah, I got a copy from Hobbyking for like 2 pebbles and a stick and it works. Just needed to buy some beefier tips to have some thermal mass for the fatter wires.
 
Hakko it looks like wins the battle.
Now that research to commence.
 
We are sitting on the Hakko brand now to determine a model.
Ugh
 
What are ya'lls thoughts on a Hakko FM203?
I have never had a Hakko anything to know.
 
I am sorry to have posted in the wrong location, thank you for moving this.
 
Thanks for the reply, I have a buddy that has a FM203 and when I told him I was lookin for something he offered me his (as he got out of the hobby) for 25 dollars.
That is why I asked.
 
buy a new one. then you get warranty etc seriously just get a new one you then know the full history and it cant be the soldering iron if your solding comes out bad.
 
That is better logic than I have most days.
I will order a new one now.
Thanks
