So I'm fixin to install a new HH Crawlmaster Sport 550 5 slot/ 15t motor into my TF2. Getting rid of the original RC4WD 540 45t motor.
And I'm on the fence about how I want to wire it up. I know I'm not going to use the cheap bullet connectors from the original set-up... mainly because they don't seem to lock together too securely or tightly. But also because the leads coming off the motor appear to be a thinner gauge than the leads coming from the ESC. I've already de-soldered the leads off of the motor but I just don't want to use em on the new motor.
So is there any significant drawback to using a nice set of bullet connectors like the ProTek 3.5 mm super bullet gold connectors? They're nice quality and fit together very securely. The wires coming from the ESC are 16g fwiw.
The other way to go would obviously be to just solder the new motor directly onto the wires coming from the ESC. But I feel like being able to disconnect the motor via connectors might have some benefit down the road.
Any thoughts?
