Soldering can be learnt and it is a great skill to have. I have taught a few people and it really does not take long, if you have the coordination to race an RC car you have the coordination to solder. Soldering the big wires we need onto ESC and motors is a little harder than some but a decent high power iron, good solder (not lead-free) and keeping everything clean and tinned will solve most things.
If you race in the Mid-South region, PM me and I will happily take you through a few tips and tricks.
Great link to a very thorough post on Soldering. He does go on a bit but its shorter than buying a book on it. Be careful on youtube, there are some that are not ideal
