    Default elbow for Turnigy / Seaking 180?

    Any suggestions on swapping out one of the straight barbs to an elbow on the Trunigy 180 ESC?
    Would really help to avoid any possible kinking in my plumbing.
    Will one of the motor sleeve work?

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    T-180 is M5. Made in china so threads are metric. Only the US makes things with imperial sizes as standard.

    Well I did check this. On the T180A V3 it does appear that its a M5 thread its ever so slightly tighter than the brass fitting but treads in nice and no locking. The 10/32 fits too but is lose and would need some extra sealant.

    I will see what I can dig up.

    Thanks

    ESC is your speed controller

    BEC (battery eliminator circuit) from your speed controller can power up your receiver from your ESC from power from your many batts.
    UBEC (universal) or separate BEC if you run higher voltage or your ESC doesnt have a BEC or you dont want to rely on your ESCs BEC

    hope that makes sense

    I know exactly how you feel. Same with me. I can make a big boat go as fast as you like (nothing says HP like a needle climbing on a boost gauge) and deal with good size 3p machinery at work just need to combine the two and scale it down alot, Back in the day I had some electric and nitros but cant use my servo and on/off switch for throttle method anymore.. Just search and research and alot of info on here for almost any setup you are looking for.
