First bend out the positive tab a hair. This will give you additional clearance for the negative wire. Now tin the wires. The thing to remember is it takes a bunch of solder to tin the wire correctly. If I have had an issue getting a good bond, it’s almost always lack of proper tinning. Rotate the wire as you tin to cover all sides. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>Ok, here is the little trick that will save the day. As soon as you finish tinning the wires, squeeze the tip with a pair of pliers to flatten out the tinned tip. You have to get to it fast before the solder solidifies. This will give you additional surface area as the wire lays on the tab. It will also give you more clearance. <o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>Sent from my iPhone<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><br><br><o:p></o:p></p><blockquote style='margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt'><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>On Jul 28, 2021, at 9:45 AM, Peter Vogel via NSRCA-discussion <nsrca-discussion@lists.nsrca.org> wrote:<o:p></o:p></p></blockquote></div><blockquote style='margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt'><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>I do a similar thing. Tin the plug, tin the wire letting the solder really soak in.

Heat the wire so the solder is fluid and then lay it on the tab and let the heat from the wire/solder to heat the plug under it. If you heat the plug tabs you’ll just melt the plug. 10g is a pita anyway, that’s why my systems use 12g. I’m sure I’m short changing myself with 1 Deans, 10S 6000’s and 12g wire but I rarely ever hit full throttle so I short change myself on the transmitter before my systems see it <span style='font-family:"Segoe UI Emoji",sans-serif'>😂</span><o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>Jas iP<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><br><br><o:p></o:p></p><blockquote style='margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt'><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>On Jul 28, 2021, at 10:55 AM, mups53 via NSRCA-discussion <<a href="mailto:nsrca-discussion@lists.nsrca.org">nsrca-discussion@lists.nsrca.org</a>> wrote:<o:p></o:p></p></blockquote></div><blockquote style='margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt'><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>I talked to Deans yesterday.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal> They have black and white ones in the works.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal> Interesting that he claims that the Dean's ultra can carry much more of a load than generally thought of and is equal to a XT90 in its ability to carry the current.
