Thanks. These seem like a copy of the EC5 with better male connector. The EC5 connector normally has EC5 and + and - molded on the plastic housing.

Do you put a male on you ESC and female on your packs ? Can these be mixed where you have a male and female in the housing or do you have to have 2 females and 2 males in the housing ?

EC5, + and - are molded on the plug. I always run the females on the batteries. You run 2 females on the battery, 2 males on esc/charger. You can't plug in backwards because of the shape of the plug (well I guess you could if you really forced it). Hope that helps.

Thanks that helps allot. On the website I couldn't see any markings on the plastic housings Guess whoever took the pictures used the other side of the housing. No all I need to do is find out where to get the ones with solid males as the split/swivel type is definitely not as good.

Are you looking for the 60 or 70C ? There is a chance we will get some 70C in our next shipment due in next Friday. For the 60C still waiting on the update from the factory. Hope it will be the middle of May for this model. We have also activated pre-orders on our site for those who had requested this.

Shortys are due in early next week. Was suppose to be this Friday but new export regulations are creating a couple day delays.

For the 6500-3S-60C and 4S still waiting on an update from the supplier.

The 2S-6500-60C are due in by the end of the second week of May.
