Quick Tip

[Re~Mix]

After soldering many packs and being around the brushless world for a while, I figured it was time to step it up to 7 cells:L: . Now since I usualy use my deans speed jig this posed a problem, since I had no easy way to solder, and I couldn't use my hands to do it.:rolleyes:

So after some masking tape, a big rubber band, and two piece's of wood (in this case cut off hockey sticks) I came up with something. ohh, not to forget the help of my vice. Hopefully this will help someone else out, I dunno, I just thought it was a neat little idea. Don't mind the dumpy cells, they're old sanyo 2400's, soldering up a bigger pack to run in the little brothers Radio Shack:D

You got to do what you have to do some time. I took a hot glue gun held the cells together until i got them soldered and heat shrinked. That works as well.

I just taught myself how to solder my packs. I have 3 duratrax 3000nimh, 2 radio shack 3000nimh and a duratrax 1700nicd. you want to know the scary part. the radio shack packs are better than the duratrax

It works alright, although soldering with the Deans jig is extremely easy. The cells turned about to be a tad to old anyway, started making a bubbling sound while charging, so I trashed them.
