Wiring the internals

[SnoozeDoggyDog]

Morning peeps
I'm doing my homework for wiring the internals. I'm assuming I'm following the middle diagram. Am I ok to use one of those 2 to 1 xt60 connectors to connect the BEC and the esc to the battery?




Thanks

Almost, you'll probably need a BEC for the reciever battery set up as well, since it can only take 5V. Disconnect the ground from the esc as well or Coyote will be along to point out the ground loop! 😜

Thats right :)

Diagram 2, but with the black and red cables removed and isolated. So just the signal wire remaining between the receiver and the esc. Everything works fine then :)

Brilliant. Thank you

But I'm OK to use a dual xt60 connector from the battery to power the vector regulator/esc and the BEC?

Thank you

Depending on your soldering skills, personally I would say it would be better to solder both the BEC wires and the ESC wires into the same single XT60 connector.

However, when I'm feeling lazy I use one of these:

but the dual XT60 connector will work just fine, if that's what you've got.
