Perfect for those who don't know how to solder

Cole Wilson - 23rd November 2023

I have some ability to solder, but I'm not confident in my ability to do it in combat robotics so these were very helpful. These are a hidden gem in fighting robots and if you don't know how to solder, definitely purchase these.

Solid connection!

The Infernolab - 02nd January 2018

Before ordering, I had intended to solder all connections in my Viper kit, including the wire-to-motor connections.

However, after connecting the ESCs to the motors (connectors were already crimped to wires when we received the kit), I don't feel that soldering is necessary at all.

Super easy to install, solid connection. Very attractive, especially for the Viper kit or for a project that requires frequent disconnecting/connecting of the motor wires.

Take care when pressing the connectors onto the motor terminals--I got the impression that the motor terminals could bend if the installation is not performed nice & straight, with some caution.
