I know that there's enough power to run with 1 1300mA 3s lipo on a mamba micro pro... I ordered mine as the artr, so it didn't come with the stock electronics

Jump the B1+ to the B1-. I would go to atleast a #16 wire if only using the one set of battery leads though. #20 wire will create unwanted resistance between the battery and esc.

If the stock ESC operates like the EVX in my E-Maxx, then one pair is connected to the 'BEC' side, and the other is just power. You need to use the 'A' set for the single battery so that way the rest of your electronics get power as well.

Connect b1+ to b1-. Use b2+ and b2- for the battery. Like I sAid before, use larger size wire.

I'm so glad that someone has the stock ESC for a proper solution...
