Soldered up three 12ga extension lengths from the motor to the ESC. Leads plug into 4mm sockets on the ESC. First I've seen that and kind of like it. Used 4mm female ends on the other end of the extension to mate the 4mm male ends coming off the motor.
Made a soldering fixture out of a 1x2 oak block secured in a hobby vise. One end of the block is drilled for female. One end drilled for male. Holds the connectors firm and steady making lead soldering so much easier.
Having second thoughts about powering the R1E up with 3S. Thinking more and more this will be a 2S build. Save the 3S for another project under consideration. Cheers, mates. 'AC'
