Im going to use two Deans connectors that are hard wired to my esc, so this pic has the closest example, but I cant tell which sides of the batteries are Pos. and Neg.

thanks for any pics, diagrams or "clearly" written explanations before I connect my esc and test out my radio... I read the Tekin manual and it specifically states that if I fry the esc from connecting it backwards, then it voids the warranty..

I got the wiring to the motor figured out, that was easy, clearly outlined in the esc manual, but there is more than one way to wire this Serpent!

Are you using hard packs? If so don't use any deans at all. Just put banana plugs on the end, and plug them directly into the battery. Then make a banana plug connector to wire 2 in series..
