Default 1 ESC, 2 Motors, 2 Vehicles

Hi everyone,

I am just getting started in racing and have posted a few questions here in the past about moving my electronics from one car to another depending on what I am going to race. I got some great suggestions and this is sorta of part two to that question.

I just got a Novak GTB in a trade and two different brushless motors. I am going to put one motor in each vehicle and want to move the ESC back and forth (for now at least) depending on which one I am racing or practicing with. I was wondering what kind of connectors I need to put on the esc/motor wires? Does it have to be the rubber covered bullet style or is there something else out there?

Thanks for any input or suggestions.

I've always used plugs on my ESC, Batteries and motors.

I would suggest using the "Ultra Deans" plug on everything. Good solid connection. Use the male end on the esc connection to the battery and a female on the connection to the motor.

Have fun!

I use gold 3.5mm bullet connectors between the motor and speed control. It makes motor or esc changes quick and easy and is very clean looking as well.
