    What the flux ? That’s taking back old school bro. You are a brave man doing a soldering instructional video on you tube, much respect! You did a hell of a good job 👍 B

      Yea my last solder video I got called out on all kinds of stuff. Metal top bench, no shrink wrap on my Conectors, old soldering iron, to hot, not hot enough, etc. Lol. 💪

    Love the REAL videos where things don’t always go exactly as planned, cause I never get things right the 1st time, very good learning curve for newer enthusiasts, I know someone that quit playing with rc stuff because of frustration, your videos may have helped them out too, IRONCLADED OUT BIG B

    Two tips for you: 1) buy some finger cots. Silicon ones are best. That way you can hold the wire for longer when it's hot. 2) use a jeweller's pick. Titanium or Tungsten are best. That way you can seat the wire into the solder well to make a proper connection. For high current applications like RC LiPo's, it's important.

      Thanks brother I appreciate the tips

    One tip! put 2 plugs together one soldering, in that way it will divide the heat on both plugs, and also keep the pins stable if they do get a little bit hot.
    gives you a little more time to get it done and prevent coldjoint solder, specially on the larger ones.

      got a delta 38, that one will be fitted with all carbon fiber machined at home for perfect fit.
      My rico also got machined parts, but only plywood servo mount and battery plate.

    Thanks for this Big B. Soldering is not my strongest suit so this was really useful 👌

    I keep trying to post this, but my posts keep disappearing. It might be because I put an eBay link in it. I apologize if this is a duplicate post, but here goes without any links:
    My morning routine has become make Dr. Jet High-Octane, Rocket-Fuel coffee and watch Big B's newest video. What a great way to start the day. With all your cool toys, I'm surprised you don't have a soldering station. I have an older YiHua 953D that I can not imagine NOT having in my shop. Who knows, maybe a TrakPower TK955 Digital Soldering Station review could be in your future....... 🤔😉

      Lol the wheeler is all i know. It gets hot quick and solders ec5 connectors like it's nothing. I've had the iron since I can remember it was my dad's and I think it was his fathers father's. I've still got the box it's literally from the 60's or 70's. I couldn't imagine soldering with a different iron lol. But u know me I like trying new stuff 😏

      I love my soldering iron, like yours it's old as dirt too. I still have the box it's from the 60-70's I think. It gets hot quick. It was my father's iron
