    Any pics of this high power parallel harness??

    Castle Creations suggests I run a 8s 10000mah for my set up. I have a castle 200HV and the Leopard 5698 910Kv I was gonna run 2x4s 5000mah series for 8s 5000mah. Castle said my esc might go POOF with this setup. I have 5.5mm bullets on everything now. Castle suggests running 4 4s packs total using 8mm bullets. 2 4s 5000mah parallel = 4s 10000mah x 2 in series for 8s 10000mah. How in the world do I construct a parallel harness using 8AWG wire and 8mm bullets? Does anyone have a pic of something this monsterous? Does anyone have any input on the original setup? Im not looking for SAW runs here, just some leisurely running with a few high speed passes. By what Castle tells me, now I need to redo all of my connections, and I need to get 2 more 4s lipos. This is getting spendy. HELP!

    I'd be interested to see what anyone has come up with also.

        That is a great site, thanks. But Im looking for a picture of what some guys/gals are using. Im aware of what wires need to go where for parallel and series wiring. I just want to see how others did it.

          Here is a posting that shows the same connector I've made and use. I run 2 5000 mAh 6s in parallel, getting a good solder joint with two 8mm wires is tough. Use this parallel connector with your existing 8mm plugs that are soldered on the esc and now you can run in parallel. Hope this helps.
