No I mean soldering directly to the motor. And yes I've done it with all 3 of my 1920 motors. You certainly need a solder iron that gets really got because those copper windings can wick up the heat all the day long LOL. Those motors are made to get hot and soldering a wire to one of the connectors isn't going to put more heat to the motor then it can handle, unless of coarse you hold the iron to it for a really long time.

I am still curious if the high amp motors have any actual noticeable advantages. I'd buy a 1920 high amp for my pede and find out for myself, but I don't think they make a 1920/12 high amp which is what I would need. On the other hand, I'm getting ready to set up a G3R and this is why I'm trying to find out what difference it will make. I'll buy a high amp 1950 for me Revo if there is any advantage too it. Otherwise I'd rather have the option of converting the motor to lower kv.
