But it seems you have to solder the bullet connectors onto the 3 ESC cables to connect the motor with the ESC?
How come they did not do that already since the motor cables are already equiped with bullet connectors?

And also, what is the size of the the bullet connectors between motor and the provided ones, are 8mm?

Last questions, what kind of connectors are you gonna use for your batteries - esc?
and what batteries?


thx! :)
Hi, yes you will need to solder the bullet connectors to the ESC but they are pretty easy to solder compared to other connections. Maybe Castle will have them connected in the future when they are sold as a combo? I ordered them separately I think.
The bullet connectors are 8mm in size.
I'm going to use deans, as I use them on all of my other vehicles and they haven't given me any problems yet in high amperage situations. I am also going to be using the latest Hyperion G3 EX 4200mah 45c/90c lipos on 8s.
