I've got both, but the one to worry about is the 2.1. I've got "clean" builds, so all of my electronics are hidden . . . my pics won't help.
Basically, on the 2.1 board, the outer pin on the voltage connector is the measurement pin. They mounted a ground reference pin right next to it, but it's connected to the same ground plane the ESCs, servo, and receiver are connected to. two things:
- you don't need a ground for the voltage monitor, because the ESC's are already providing a connection to battery "-" for the whole board.
- Because the ESC's are connected the board's ground plane to battery "-", if you accidentally hook up battery "+" to the wrong half of the battery monitor connector, you've now connected + to - through the board's ground plane and ESC. something's got to give, and I'd bet it won't be the cheap servo wire
So! clip the "-" pin on the battery monitor connector on the kk2.1 (you *don't* need it!), and only wire up the "+" connector to the hot side of your power distribution (harness or board).
As for the motor pins, CR is right. servo goes in M4. front left goes in M1, front right in M2, and tail in M3 . . . but what about the pulling pins on connectors?!?
M1 power is isolated form M2-8 power, and is used to power the kk2 and receiver. M2-8 are connected together, so the servo on M4 can take it's power from one of the other ESCs. people have been pulling the power connectors from the ESC's so they don't fight. each ESC has it's own UBEC, which wants to drive the voltage at the pin to what it thinks is 5v. if you connect two of these together and they're pretty close to agreeing what 5v is, no problem. if they're off a little more, they'll start to fight -- the one who want's it high will source more current, the one who wants it low will sink that current, slowly wearing each other out . . . or worse, quickly wearing each other out!
On the whole this is pretty rare, but it can happen.
So! the best thing you can do about this is connect M1, M2 and M4(servo) as normal, then pull the middle pin out of M3's connector (power) and tape it off, and plug in the M3 connector with only the 2 outer pins, like normal. Leaving in the ground won't hurt anything . . . and leaving in the power *probably* won't hurt anything.
