Default Soldering Tekin Motor

I don't want to fry it so I figured I would ask. There is a marking for the + side of the motor but can you solder the + wire to either of the post on the + side?

Or should it be soldered like this?

Also, when wiring the Castle BEC.

The diagram shows wiring the black/red wire from the BEC to the deans plug going to the battery. Could you make this connection on the Tekin ESC Battery +/- posts instead or should it be made at the Deans connection going to the battery?

The motor will be soldered correctly if you solder to the circles in your pic. You can solder the positive to either post on the positive side of the endbell. As long as you dont have both wire soldered to the same brush hood, you'll be fine. you can hardwire the bec to the battery solder posts on the tekin. Ive had mine that way since new and its never given me any grief.
