New to this and no idea how or what parts. Would the battery have the same issues as the connector?

"Why buy a new battery? You can just change the connector on the esc to match your battery. $3-$4 instead of $25- a whole bunch of money."

Why use an adaptor and not just put a new one on esc, less resistance?
I watched both. All that styrene in less then a week, wish I had those skills. Harleys I would have thought to address the issues when he did the changes but glad to see him point them out.

That said, my understanding is. With a good fitting adapter in a low amp draw rig, like a scaler, the resistance is not noticeable. I will have to throw my watt meter on and see what kind of amperage she pulls when bound up. My buddys rig only pulls 20 amps when fully bound, and 2amps when running free at full throttle with a similar 3s 35t setup.

Edit: The adapter comes with a battery rated at 66 amps continuious and 132 amps burst



I actually prefer not having a switch. I prefer the positive battery disconnect, in fact if my esc comes with a switch. I frequently remove it, old racer habits, I guess. I have had a few switchs fail, usually to on, and if the battery is left plugged in,= dead lipo.



Hey thanks, You will enjoy it for sure. Yes Missoula currently has two hobby shops, Blue Ribbon Auto, up in the north end of Missoula, and The Treasure Chest, down on the South end.
The fenders I have been saving for 7-8 years, waiting for a build like this. I have wanted a honcho for years, early on I couldn't afford it. Then when I set the money aside The body combo was out of stock for months. Then I would get distracted and spend on another project. Anyway just never got around to it. When they announced the rerelease of the honcho,I jumped on it, wanting a Scx10II as well.
