Whats that cable tied to the battery wires?

It is a very nice looking unit compared to alot of others- not sure on the colour of the motor wires though.... but thats why man invented black shrink wrap!

I have to agree about the colors...but that is the way Quark shipped it. However, they included top of the line connectors...can't complain about that.

Yeah...it's the Sport BEC from Dimension Engineering. I can't remember who recommended it but thanks to whoever did...it was a piece of cake to install and Dimension has a lot of really cool robotics stuff (another hobby I'd like to explore someday). It's a bundle of wires under the heat shrink wrap. I run telemetry on all my cars and the wires quickly become a mess...so I zip tie and shrink wrap everything I can. It also helps keep out dirt and debris and can even help protect components in the event of a crash.

Awhile back I had some ESC wires that dangled down into the drive train...I swore that I'd never let it happen again:035:

I thought as much. But then, whats that under the shrink wrap?....

neweuser · 05.16.2007, 05:23 PM

Smart move.

I thought the sport was hard cased?

I see that, yes, I was simply stating that it LOOKS and I thought it was a hard case. The ebay ones for me never did the trick. Mike's did great so far, and I bought the sport a few days ago and waiting for it's arrival as well. They shipped it first class, so it could a month before it gets here! LOL

I can see from the pic that the other side has the components sticking up/out- its just flat on one side. Looks rather good though, may have to get one when the time comes...

wallot · 05.16.2007, 06:01 PM

i got the ebay ones for miniquake as they are quite small ( i did not know about the dimension ones that time) well got them for $15 including postage for one
and they work and are 5/6V switchable

the ebay ones are actually hard case which is nice as well

sjcrss · 05.16.2007, 07:52 PM
