Default Differing gauge of wiring

Hi all,

I'm in the process of tidying and re-doing the wiring in my Losi. On the advice of other threads I am going for 12AWG for the ESC to motor connections, and 14AWG for the ESC to battery connections - this hopefully should be more than sufficient.

My question is relating to my batteries, and the connection convertors that I am using. I use EC3 connectors from the ESC to the battery, and have 1 lipo that has 10AWG into a Deans connector, attached to which is a Deans to EC3 convertor using 14AWG wiring. A second lipo has 12AWG wiring to an EC3 connector, and a 3rd lipo has 12AWG wiring to an EC5 connector, to which is attached an EC5 to EC3 convertor (no wires in between the converters, just EC5 to EC3). Confused? I sure as hell am!!!

Will the set up above be safe to run? I have a Tekin RS Pro speedo (155amp), and run 10.5 and 6.5 turn motors.

Thanks.

Steve
