Best XR10 Wiring Jobs...
 

How bout a spot to show off your clean XR10 Wiring. If you can, list your components(ESC(s), BEC, Battery, Reciever), wire gauge, connectors, ect..

Not the best, but not bad for an idiot like me:

this looks CLEAN !! Its amazing what a little wire wrap will do. I need to pick some up.

Do you know where one could pick up that wrap?

I like the look of of a few wires myself..I can unplug both motors and all of the punk dig wiring..I soldered female bullet plugs right to bottom of the Punk Dig

I have shortened up the ESC to Punk wires since pic was taken

Must Admit smoky's wiring is about the cleanest that i've see yet"thumbsup"

Second pic is more recent and messier..Added a few goodies"thumbsup"

Can we have a "messiest" wiring thread? lol.

Hey you dont like my new word..Fashioned after the hockey player Mark Messier:flipoff:

Mine looks like the clean one. I picked up some of the wire wrap CHEAP from Hobby King. Its like 20 cents a meter or something. They have it in lots of different colors. I chose black as the whole rig is blacked out. You can get it in 3 different sizes too. I got some small stuff for my micro crawler and one that fits servo wires, and then the big stuff like in that picture above for the motor wires.

It does make it look as clean as possible. I hated the rats nest when I first built it.

Tip, zip tie it to the wires then use a hot knife to cut it. This will melt the webbing together to prevent it from fraying out.

I would imagine things would look even cleaner if someone used the factory electronics tray and some of this wire wrap.

dual tekin rs, futaba 614 rx is the only thing in the chassis on my truck, this is what i looks like when i pull the cab off. (switch is zip tied to cab)

Thanks Guys "thumbsup"

It's pretty hard to argue about this, the "Smokey" wiring job is hands down the way to go"thumbsup" But it does make me wonder why I did not see this or think of it myself years ago!

I am not sure if mine counts since I am not using a stock XR10 Chassis. It is about the same size though (roughly)
