As I've said previously, if I run the motor wires under the deck the wires end up blocking the sensor port on my reedy motor, which means I have to move the wires out of the way to remove the sensor wire so I can program the r10 pro. If I was running an orion motor it would not matter because I would then be able to use the secondary sensor port. I've wired it both ways, this works better for me.

I had the same issue. I'll post some pics later. Just trying to help you clean it up a little bit.

I get that. Run your sensor wire over the top deck, but then run the actual motor wires under the deck. That way, you can easily unplug the sensor wire to use the programming box.

Some of us appreciate feedback and sharing tips. If you don't STFU and do things your way, whether it works or not.

I did use them when I started in the hobby a couple years or so ago (tacon stuff had it). Hate them. The banana connectors dont grab as much over time. The speedpassion MMM motors dont have solder tabs they just got 3.5 mm nubs stickin out from the end bell. I stopped using it for that reason.

Got a local racer who runs/sponsored by speed passion and I've seen him have several motor wires come unsoldered during races. He does run pretty low turn mod motors drawing a lot of power. But it's my belief he is losing the wires because the plugs are either wearing out quick or vibrating lose and causing excessive resistance and then the connection heats up. It's a horrible design IMO. There is a reason 99% of people eliminate the RTR style motor connectors. The only ones I have seen that I would ever consider using are the Qteq connectors. I can unsolder/resolder a motor just as fast as someone could unbolt/bolt these though. So I don't see the point.

For me this is why I buy cray they r very reliable /HD in kit form .
May want to grab a few sway bars and shock oils but the kit springs will give u 95% of what anyone needs to be in the Amain with a good driver behind the wheel.
I have 2 in stock form and I've played with oils and shock location and pretty much just drive it.
Now if u race indoor on nice smooth clay springs from avid might get u set up a little better .
But for a outdoor track the stock springs will/does do great
