      Here's my spin on it, it's the same as properchoppers, I thought this was the easiest way.

            -keep the wire lenght between caps and ESC's as short as possible
            -try to use low ESR caps, like Rubycon ZL or even better Rubycon ZLH

            @ Scoota: Very nice, did the same on my 180's. Did you also have some troubles with the original solder on the circuit board? It took me some effort to solder them nicely together.

            Best regards,
            Manuel
            no just cleaned up the solder on the original caps with a small file & they soldered on with no problems, i do have a pretty good iron , it has a very fine tip & a boost button which doubles the wattage and gets the tip nice & hot

            Fred , the extra caps are soldered the same way as the original caps negitive to negitive & positive To pos , the caps wouldnt last 2 seconds if the were soldered the wrong way .

            Cheers jason
