Clod stall?
 
Wondering if anyone has done the parallel wiring mod to a stock rs10? If so can i get a indepth how to sorta, like can I pig tail the 2 blue wires together and come off that and go to both motors same with the yellow, or do i juss need to use 1 set of wires?:???::???:

series is alike a flashlight from + to - to + to -

parallel is taking all the + and take them to the +ESC
and all the - to the ESC

if that helps?

I thought someone tested the wires and found out they are already wired in parallel from the ESC. Monday when I get a chance at work I will check it out and let everyone know.

So do I tie the 2 blue wires comin off the esc together and run them to the motors? same with the yellow? Ughh this confuses meh *bash head

Parallel wiring mod:
Take the yellow wires from the esc and solder them together. Take the blue wires from the esc and do the same. Solder the blue wires from the motors together and do the same for the yellow wires. Combine all of the yellow wires together and all of the blue wires together.
Pretty good thread on how to do this here:

TattooKenny posted up some helpful diagrams in that thread.

Tips n tricks of THIS section, rs10, page 2 post #36

somoney has already done the testing, there is NO need to do any special wiring as Redcat has already done it for you, internal to the ESC.

put some brushless outrunners on it and two small heli/plane esc's= no more stall . I know its not what you asked for but I bet it works

Use a $4 multi meter from harbor freight and you'll see that they are already in parrallel. Any improvement people say they see is most likely placebo effect. You're best bet to get rid of it is to upgrade your motors, or gear down the rear motor. If you gear down the rear, your clod stall will be less in forward but WORSE in reverse. If you squeeze in the big motors, all your clod stall will go away and you'll miss it now and then. Untill you put on a dig switch. Things too consider.
