It's only 18th scale, and still not as clean as some of you guys' TCs, but the stock wiring was so awful, I thought this was a major improvement:

Hi guys, congrats on a great thread. I have posted 3 photos of my TC6 on : Team Associated TC6 thread, page 88 of my wireing efforts, but for some reason i cant resend them across to this thread. Can anyone give me some advice? Anthony.

Default TC6

I think i might have worked it out(see last post). This is my first attempt at some neat wiring inspired by you all.(sorry 4 spelling mistake on last post). Now just waiting on a shorter sensor wire from TQ. Anthony.

What are you using there for the connections to the Tekin? some kind of bullets?

Also, they look really close to shorting. I wonder why these speed control companies put these posts so close to each other? Makes me nervous...

Some black heatshrink will fix the 'close to shorting problem'

The car looks great Handbrake.

That is not recomended as the solder posts are also heat sinks for the speedo.

Default Bullets

Yes they are bullets. they increase the surface area for the heat to disapate better, and it also allows me to change motors with out soldering. I already have different motors wired up with male bullets soldered to them. The Tekin has the femail bullets soldered directly to the lugs. They are close, so i slide a cut down clear plastic drinking straw(which fits perfectly) over the middle lugg on the speedie, just incase. Thanks also JKL1031 and John for your kind words.
Anthony.

Thought I'd add some pics of my latest install in the 417.
It's not the smallest of equipment, but think I've done a decent enough job of keeping it tidy
Servo - Spektrum S6040
Receiver - Spektrum Micro SR3500
ESC - Castle Mamba Max Pro (de-cased )
Motor - SP V2 3.5T
PT - MRT Custom iPT

Also have a separate BEC (Castle CC BEC) circuit in there (it's the black heatshrinked device between ESC and reciver, hence the reciever wire for the ESC being heatshrinked (middle power wire isn't needed). I guess I could just cut the plug off and poke the wire in the plug, but if ever there's an issues with the BEC and it needs taking out, want to retain the ability to simply plug the power wire back in!
