    Excellent video! There's another power tab for use with newer Traxxas battery connecters; TRA6541X

    Great idea soldering the tap in place. Saved me from hunting down a part that is now hard to find.

    Pro tip if you search up traxxas t-maxx telemetry you can get every optional telemetry sensor (rpm, temp, voltage) for cheaper than buying each sensor separately

  • @MikeRCWorld
    @MikeRCWorld 4 года назад +1

    Nice guide, to connect the + for battery you also don't need this cable with red connector. Simply unplug the small red connector expand the + cable to + battery. So with that setup you just need the temperature holder... which you also don't really need you can do it yourself . So in my words, just buy the sensor all the rest you can handle with 0 problems just a bit creativity :)

    sir!! wow incredible video. Much better than the one traxxas put out on installing this. Thank you. How is your truck so clean? :) it looks right out of the box, or as if it's never seen the outside world haha. How do you keep it so clean? Please share. thank you.

    put the battery connector in the controller box... Why keep a connection in the elements if you don't need to.

    How did you solder voltage wire on to red esc wire? Did you wrap it around + wire or just lined it up or soldered directly to copper plate? i know its a small space, did you have to peel back insulation at all? thanks for the help

    • @iftibashir
      @iftibashir  4 года назад +1

      Im not very good with soldering! I peeled back the insulation by a few mm, then wrapped the red wire and applied solder on top.....

    I am guessing one can skip the power tap part and just run a wire from battery positive to the sensor connector?

      I may have to do that myself. I just ordered the temp/volt sensor, but didn't know I needed other extra parts. It seemed simple enough, so I may do the solder connection when I track down the missing piece
