Default RE: Here's a new one....

Just so it's clear, I am not blaming the connectors at all. I merely noted that the one side of the APP connector at the connection point of the arming plug was worn (I guess I shouldn't say "positive" side since both sides of the arming plug are positive). This would be where the arc would happen as well in the setup so wear is normal. This is why I attributed the initial failure to this. I switched to Deans because this "would have" been the second failure that caused the motor to quit in two airplanes with APP had that been the ultimate cause. The Passport definitely had that as a failure point. The DJV was pretty worn but probably had a little life left. To be honest, I'm not 100% positive I had the Sky Lipo pack in there the first time it failed but fairly certain.
