Silly question time.
I have a couple of old Novak T4 esc'c that I am wanting to set up in my Losi X2 and PRO. There are two small red wires that exit these units where the receiver and switch wires come out.
Are these power wires for FET servos? If so, why two of them?
Thanks in advance, Jason.

I thinks it's something to do with how many cells you are running? joining the wires is for 4 or 6 cell and left unsoldered for 7+ cells

here's a link to the manual.

Very helpfull. Thanks again.

Just wondering if anyone is using these with LiPOs?? I have with mine but the motor seems to get hot quick and I am not sure if its the gearing or the extra power from the lipo.
Thanks
