help with wiring everything
I haven't started my first build yet, but just trying to figure out the wiring in my head while i wait for the hull...
this is what i'll be using,
6volt SLA 10 or 12Ah battery (im guessing either F1 or F2 terminals)
gruapner speed 600 eco 7.2v brushed motor
pro boat waterproof ESC w/ reverse
im not even sure what gauge wire i should be using, is 14, 16 or 18 sound about right ? im guessing it's copper wire, right? black and red... that come in like 15 ft spools.
id like to add a jack to the deck that connects to the battery (i guess by some sort of connector, rather not solder directly) so i can just plug in the charger with out having to take the battery out, etc....would a gold phono/RCA plug+jack work for this? just solder on the wires to the jack then solder on some sort of connector to the wires so i can easily connect it to the battery....and then i guess i'll have to cut off the aligator connectors on the charger and solder on the RCA plug....wouldn't that work? thou, not sure how id wire it to the battery properly...so it would charge.
id also like to add a couple LEDs lights to the deck that turn on by a waterproof switch, and have those connected to the battery somehow, guess i'll have to use a resistor...or i could have a small seperate battery just for the LEDs...i already have 5mm LEDs, just will need the cases/slots/jacks (or whatever they are called) to mount them on the deck etc....so then id just solder the wires to the LED and then to the battery by another connector....boy i hope im making sense...haha
a diagram would really help...
