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 switched over to one of these at the Snowbirds this year to try it (mainly to save weight versus the rec pack) and it has worked fine thus far. I ran it there most of the week, here at home a few runs and a full weekend at the Grand Slam race and it was fine there too. As long as I dont have any issues with failures I wont be going back to a receiver pack!
