Don't feel sorry about it, I did almost the samething to my bk12020 controller. And it has 4 wires to the batterys :intello:. It was huge pita to solder 'em to one dean.

Btw nice project you have there, I love that center diff thingie :yes:

Hay Jordan.. PM your addy and I'll fedEX some 6.5mm plugs to you, :yes: I can get them out later today or tomorrow.. WE don’t want to wait anymore..:wink:

have a great one and WAY COOL about the NECK.. congrads..:yipi::yipi: :party::party:

P.S.
Maybe you should take a page from my BOOK :oh: and start drinking “heavily” & smoking (“Cough” “cough”, COUGH!). during your build process.:yes::yes:. Just a suggestion, a thought, a new life style perhaps .:lol:

I would have to agree, Shaun you are one kind man, always helping everyone out, and your builds are awesome!

Hey guys,

So, after screwing up a couple of 6.5mm plugs, im just waiting on my next order to come through so i can finish up the wiring. Thanks HEAPS to Shaun for sending me some spare plugs, i just recieved them today and will get to work ASAP. Apart from my mistakes, my soldering iron packed it in, so i just got a new one, hopefully it will last a bit longer :no:

Anyway, while im waiting for the plugs, i just finished up my ESC mount. Nothing really custom about it, apart from how i've put it together i guess. Just got a load of the Gmaxx posts for the extended rear skid, made some studs, and mounted the original upper rear plate above the motor. I think it turned out quite well.

Also got some pics of the ESC mounted, just mocked up of course. You can also see the third motor screw i've put in, and the 'brace' im using for the back of the motor. Slowly its coming together :lol:

cheers

Thanks, at first i did, but couldn't find a 6mm thick piece of carbon. I think i'd need some type of mill or something to cut it out. All i had was my trusty dremel, so i just did what i could :mdr:

Looking really Jordan. I can't wait to see a vid of your truck running.
