Well if you are planning to swap motors a lot, I guess you'll have to buy a lot of diodes, like one for each motor. Like I said before, I installed mines on the ESC, I can change motors all day without worring about the Diode. I need another capacitor though, hooked it up wrong after cleaning the car, whent to charge the batteries and POW!!!!! There went the cap!!! Does anyone know how to say "capacitor" in German?

My wife is from Elba, Al. in what I call L.A., "Lower Alabama"!!!!!
