Default Loose battery bullets

I have a set of lipos with those terrible removable leads. One of the leads has become loose to the point of cutting off power.

Any suggestions on how to fix loose leads?

Are you referring to the male leads from your ESC to battery? What kind of bullets are they specifically?

Are you saying the females are loose in the case? If so, some CA will secure them. You're better off making a harness with a plug of your choice so your not constantly plugging/unplugging right from the battery.

If the leads are the castle style, you can slide an xacto knife in the slots on the male to spread it apart and make it fit tighter. If it's the spring type, you're better off replacing them.

It's the male leads that plug into the battery. The females in the case are fine.

I think they are spring type, I've tried using a slice to pop the little things back out but they just crush back in.

The leads then selves have TRX plugs on one end and bullets on the other.


I'd be perfectly fine with making them perminant in the pack.
