|  Motor Capacitors
Do I need to use Motor Capacitors on my Tekin T35 Pro Brushed motor, and if so what side of the motor do I attach them or does it matter. I see one side of the motor has a gold srew and the other a silver one, if anyone has a pic of the wiring it would help....

you shouldnt need to put any on it as capacitors tend to be just a bandaid for some glitch problems. but it really doesnt matter which side, i used to put them opposite side of the motor wires

Motor caps WERE NEEDED for AM & FM radios, for 2.4ghz they may not be needed, but they don't hurt motor performance and "may" help. As to which side, won't matter. They need to tie each motor "pole" together as well as to ground.  |

I have a 2.4 hz radio and a Tekin FXR with a hand wound 35t motor (3 cell Lipo)and use no Capacitors. I haven't used a Capacitor on any rock crawler. If you use a 3 cell Lipo you will need a BEC. |
