Default First night tonight

Hi there

I'm coming along for my first time this evening and am in ned of some help if at all possible

Would anyone there be happy to solder deans connectors to my ESC and battery as I've not done this before and don't want to make a complete hash of it!

I'd really appreciate it if someone would be willing to help me out with this

Thanks

Shaun
