That doesn't do anything for the male bullet connectors... They are still exposed. I think I will just break down and spend the money on EC5's.

male bullets would be on the esc... so heat shrink the soldered end and you will be fine

Hopefully that will fix this problem and I can actually enjoy driving this thing. If new connectors doesn't solve the problem, time for an MMM.

I tried using a cap board (6 caps) with my MM and it still did the on off thing. Maybe it is just my connectors though. Just ordered some EC5's, should have them by Wednesday or Thursday.

I suggest you sell the MM while it is still alive and invest in a MMM- you won't regret it.

Get me back into RC!

I had the same issue with 2 of my MM's awhile back. Solved it by disabling the on/off switch all together and bought my first set of TRX plugs to replace the deans. I am very happy in doing so. They have more contact area, more confortable, more grip, no heatshrink...

Nah, I want to see if I can get this thing to work. Not just going to take the easy way out this time.

Yeah, yeah..... I just hope the new connectors fix the problem so it wont happen again for however long the MM is around before it gets fried from by my motor.

How did you completely disable the on/off switch? Just solder the wires together like I did?

^^^yeah, you can solder the wires together like you did, or put enough solder on the board to jump the gap between the two wires solder points. Either will "permanently disable" your on/off switch.

I think he might have made the wires super short then soldered them together.

I unsoldered the switch and wires from the board and jumped the two joints on the board together with a small peice of solder. Was very easy to do.
