Mamba Max w/ Fiegao 9L - Series Harness? Or what?
 

I can't remember correctly.
I believe it's the series harness?
Where, the female deans/connector goes into the male ESC deans/connector, and the female deans/connectors is split into two deans?
Anyone have a good diagram? Or should I just pick one up from like GA?

Like this?

You want to run 2x 2s lipos, do this:

So I'm looking for the series right?

Does the postive and negative go together.. right?

depends. what batteries do you have?

For now, NiMHs, but have some hardcased 5000mAh 2S ones on hand. That I should be testing out sometime tomorrow.

Also included 3A-5Amp UBEC.
Now, I'm completely new to the brushless world, but what does the UBEC accomplish? And how do I wire it? With the diagram, I'm viewing that I should be splicing it into the ESC's Male Deans?

anyone?

Is that what you're looking for?

Are the series harness the same, even with NiMHs?
and

This is not the Traxxas forum.... :whistle:

Read one of my FAQs, then the tutorials that follow them in the same threads- that will answer all your noob wiring and BEC etc questions in explicit detail :yes: :mdr:

Too true Neil.
Actually, mikey said that, up above.
The FAQ is just so long :( Fine.

Actually Neil, since I'm only going to be running the 2S (x2) LiPos, I won't be needing the UBEC, will I?

Of course, if I was running 4S, I would need it.
Or is running 2 lipos in series doubling the cells, thus causing 4S? Or am I just gone stupid.

You dont need to read the whole thing, there are seperate sections relating to the different issues you are asking about.

2 + 2 = 4. Series doubled the voltage, parallel doubles the mah.

You will need:

A UBEC / BEC.
A capacitor equal to 25v 105*C low esr 2000-4000uf.
A series Y-harness for the 2x 2s lipos to be wired together IN SERIES.

Yes, you are stupid, now go away before I fart on your head.

If you skip to the lipo tutorial, it explains what you need to do, as does the BL upgrade section in the FAQs.

Its all good... :yes:
