| Castle wiring questions
1. I forget the color combos on their wiring, which is +/-/signal. 2. What sized bullet connectors are on the Mamba Micro Pro? Are they 3.5 mm? 3. What size wire are you guys running to the motors, 12 ga.? 4. Does the BEC need to be any distance from the ESCs? Can they be right next to them, or is there any chance of glitching? Never used one, just not sure. |

The RX is what needs some distance from the ESC & BEC. Not that you can move it very far away. Also try to keep the RX antenna away from other power wires & ESC. |

Yeah, I need to figure out to route the RX antenna from the 4PL. Other than that, it doesn't seem to hard at this point.

The bullet connectors on the micro are 3.5 MM, I know this for sure since I just tried to fit the 4 MM that I bought when I got the ESC. Funny thing is that castle doesn't sell 3.5 MM only the 4MM.

| I opened the RX case and fit the antenna inside. Now I havent had any problems with glitching but I cant guarantee that you wont... I do this with all my 4pl and dx3r receivers
