After some cutting and trimming...10 gauge wire, and some 6.5mm female bullets finally made its way on to the 120A Tyrannosaurus Rex ESC. The is in preparation for a package dropped off by the best team out there...USPS. Inside the little package lays a Neu-Castle 2650kv 1/8 power plant.


The 2650kv is not quite the kv rating that I wanted, but if the ESC will handle 4S, like it claims, I should be a happy camper. Before I try though, I think I will solder on some 13 gauge (that's all I got ) wires for the batter leads. I don't know if it will help, but I'll feel better. The wire that's on the blue re-branded/copied ESCs seems too "wimpy" to handle the added juice.
