Yeah, that's exactly what I described. I just didn't have a pic of a 3s adapter handy. So the question remains...is the OP aware that all 4 wires have to be connected to the batt? For the adapter in the A Main link, it doesn't matter if the larger bullets or the Deans connector goes to the batt's main leads but they do need to be connected along with the smaller bullets to the A/B ports. As far as which of the smaller bullets goes to which port, the wires lay out the same on the batt as they do on the white connector. In other words, you could label the wires in the white connector as Black-A-B-Red in that order. So looking at the connector, the wire next to the black wire connects to port A on the batt the wire next to the red wire connects to port B on the batt. I apologize if I'm pointing out the obvious here.
