  • Argghhh !!! New Turnigy 6s 2650

    Damn I have received my new 6s Batteries & they have used 10AWG wire which do not fit my EC3's.
    I have an old Turnigy 6s and a Hyperion 6s and they both fit my EC3 connectors fine.
    Looks like I will have to change to EC5's, damn more soldering and whats the best way to take off the old connecters without having to cut the wire?

    They pop out.

    Put the opposite bullet on the connector and push it out.

      Or just run a blade down the side and break them open. Only do one at a time though !!!

        That's what I did with my Zippy's. EC5's are BETTER anyway. Although I still have an EC3 on one of my 600E's plus several adaptors from EC3 to EC5 and visa versa.
        Been there and done that, but never stop learning.
        Now too many Helis to mention?

              You can stick with ec3s if you want. Just solder in a thinner piece of wire. I doubt if you will notice the difference in performance.

                can you file down the tinned section of wire until it comfortably fits in the ec3 and then solder it
