I think i know but want to make sure. The wires to the batts on each side of the motor wires. Is this right?

In general I will use one. EVX (HV-MAXX as well) have two sets of power connectors, to connect internally two batteries in series and provide BEC only from one battery pack. Check image for details...

I just ordered a lipo shield from dimension eng. I want to hook it up as you did. What is the best way to make the actual connection. Your diagram shows where to make, but Im looking for how to make? I cant tell from the other photo. Should I just pull back some of the cover and solder right in?

Thanks.

I will agree with Leroy it is up to you.

- cut heatshrink and unsolder wire from W.S.Deans connector
- put new heatshrink
- resolder wire back to connector with LVC wire
- melt the heatshrink

Repeat the same for other side...

P.S. It is possible to do that inside EVX, let me know if you want to do that, will look cleaner...

I just got the lvc today in the mail. I'll take a look at it tonight and see what I want to do. Hurry up maxxamps and send those packs!!

Here is what I came up with. I cut off the stock tamiya connectors and used the deans ultra. Kinda tough to solder them on as the wires from the esc are so short. To lazy to take the esc outta the truck.

The big question is do I have it hooked up correct??

(The green part on the wire is some heatshrink as I boogered the case of that thin wire a bit.)
