Default ESC Soldering Query

Hi all,

Have soldered up a 10th scale esc... To get the right angle in the wires they end up VERY close to each other on the esc posts. Is there an arching danger or as long as I can clearly see daylight between each one am I ok?

Thanks!

Use heat-shrink tubing over each connection to stop any potential shorts. A short here is a very quick way to blow up your ESC.
