Default Help Loose battery connector from my ESC ?

The other day I was out at the salmon river doing some crawling when all of a sudden my truck started jerking around, well I narowed it down to the black wire inside the battery connector is loose. Is there a way to fix this or do I need to go get a new connector ? Would just slapin some super glue in there fix the problem ? Thanks for your help.

small tip needle nose pilers, reach in there and squeeze the female connetor close, a little.

Yeahhhh, super glue isn't a fix for electronics. Your best bet is to try to fix it with some small needle nose pliers. If that doesn't work, take it to your local hobby shop if you have one and see if they can assist. Ultimately my advice would be to switch over to some nicer plugs like deans and learn to solder if you don't already know how. It's a cheap fix, nonetheless.

the deans connectors is the way to go!!! When i changed all my trucks over the rs10 was like a different beast,soo much more power!! I was having a problem with just the factory connector becoming loose and the fix i used for that was to zip tie the two connectors(one from the truck and the one from your battery) together making the connection tight!!!
