The smaller silver screws can be used to mount the ESC to a chassis. The larger black screws secure the fan into position over the heat sink. No worries they self tap once get them started.

Everyone is right, no motor screws since there is too much variation in kits/conversions.
I reccomend a good rosin core solder. I use Deans when I can. You get what you pay for that's for sure. 40/60 seems pretty standard.
The most important thing is to get good flow. Solder should be all the way up the sides of the solder posts, not just a little bit. What I do is tin the wires going into the post slots first. While they're still not I smash them with some pliers making them flatter. This allows them to fir right down into the slots which of course are pre tinned. Add a touch of solder to the iron tip, apply and whammo! Good flow and proper solder joint, nice and shiny.

push control is the opposite of drag brake. It will creat a long coast to the car. We don't normally need this with our motors as they are a low cog torque design.

Hmm, sounds like that may be a good feature for the nitro guys who are having a hard time. I know it took me a bit to get the hang of having some slight motor drag on the diff when I let off the throttle.I like it now as I think it helps the car rotate. I "might" try some drag brake soon.
