Awesome, just be sure to post up pics of the final product here!
As I just posted excellent tips for proper soldering, one thing I didn't mention is that you want the minimum amount of wire exposed. For instance, on my 410, knowing my Orion motor has notched leads that are just over 0.03125" I stripped just a sliver off the ends of my wires, tinned them up, and soldered to the motor. No chance of anything ever touching, creating a short unless you purposely do so.
Here's my 4.2 with Neon green:
I had my battery short out on the CF shelf in the pics and the resin caught fire so my neon green is a bit toasty looking so I have to re-do it soon.
