I've never done this, but wouldn't you do the following:


Lipo1 red to ESC red
Lipo1 black to Lipo2 red
Lipo2 black to Lipo3 red
Lipo3 black to ESC black

?

Excellent...I even had that page bookmarked...should of known Steven would have something on his site!

Looks easy enough. Just wanted to try my MM on 6S with a 12Xl motor ...maybe even the 9 Xl///:buttrock:

Use 5.5mm bullet connectors all the way through. Don't hard wire! That way if you have one of the three packs go bad, you can just unplug it and plug in a new one!

Thanks, Yes, 5.5 is all I run.

Okay...maybe not the 9Xl but the 12 should do it and turn a decent prop.
