They carry 2 kinds of boosters, one is by Turnigy (no shrink wrap) and the other with the black shrink wrap on.

Do you just hook one end up to the battery side and the other end to the BATT port on the RX?

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks!
I have used/use the shrinkwraped one with both a Tekin RS and Novak GTB without any issues. With a Novak esc you simply plug the esc into one end of the booster and the othre end of the booster you plug into the receiver. With the Tekin you have to fasion two wires for the pos and neg of the booster to the esc, the third terminal is not used.
