Hey all, Yes I am a totally new to RC aircraft. I just embarked on building the 3 pk of swappables and my Nutball is all but finished. I'm down to the electronics and have a few questions on the connections. Going off the recommended component list I decided to go with the Turnigy Plush 18A ESC & Turnigy Park 300 1380kv motor. My question is on the the battery to ESC connectors. All the batteries under 1000mah seem to come with JST connectors. From what I understand JST connectors are only good for about 10 amps. So if I were to go to a larger motor & battery I'd need to change out the connectors on my ESC. My question is can you put an XT60 connector on a smaller say 800mah 20c 2s batteries, or are the connectors of the XT60 designed for larger AWG wire? Would I be better off making a JST to XT60 adapter for the battery to ESC connection? The idea is to try to use one uniform set of connectors. So as I progress through the hobby I don't have to go crazy changing connectors.
Thanks.
Thanks.
