I went to soldering cells for most of the winter.

Now, I have gone to the LRP silver connectors, and they work great. A real nice fit and look cool too. And since they are the only silver version, I won't be mixing/matching my connectors ever again.



Carl,
For the tiny advantage in reduced resistance in direct soldering, it is far outweighed in the huge disadvantage in that its a right frickin pain in the arse!!! Then when an ESC goes up in smoke... well... you'll find wire cutters aren't easy to find track side.

o i agree with you Chris
some times soldering is a right pain in the ass and yes we've run back to the pit table because i forgot to solder em up
I didn't know there were 2 different kinds of corrallys,
please explain may be there in was our problem
but as i said i only really changed over because we had a connector fall of mid stream a good race
whats these LRP ones like i come see at batley if thats OK??
