I have downloaded the GT7 manual but it only shows how to solder the wires directly to the battery and the motor. Do you just splice two wires onto the positive wire coming from the ESC and use one of the spliced wires for the motor connector and the other for the battery connector? I'm sure this method will work, however I just don't know if this is the method that is best for R/C vehicles. If this is the best method, what is the preferred splicing method?
Thanks for any possible help!
you run the red and bluue to your motor....the black to your batt. then splice a red into the red for your pos. batt terminal...good luck i wouldnt cut the red motor wire, just cut a 3/8 inch ring out of the wire shield and splice your new wire in there btw....dont forget to put your heat shrink on BEFORE you solder your spliced wire
