  • Soldering is a big part of our hobby. But there are some people that just don't like doing it or don't have the proper tools to do so. That doesn't mean they shouldn't be able to enjoy the hobby too. Holmes Hobbies has recognized the need for no solder power adapter to help people power up their accessories such as a high voltage servo, lights or even a winch. To get those items powered up, John has added power adapters to the Holmes Hobbies product line-up. The power adapters are available in a variety of plug types and allow you to plug JST plug accessories right into them. In this video, John will talk about the details of the adapters and even why you want to consider an adapter to avoid other problems.

    Awesome product.
    Out of curiosity wouldn't it be a better if the JST plug came off of the ESC side of the plug vs. the battery side? Just for routing of wires and the way they would lay. ESC side wires get moved/handled less than the battery side.

  • @laxm8162
    @laxm8162 Před rokem

    Hi John, I like your videos a lot and they do provide a wealth of information. My question may not be related to the topic but do you know if there could be a way to connect/solder the motor sense wire from traxxas light kit onto an aftermarket brushless motor like hobbywing fusion pro, which has 3 wires from motor(or esc?) Instead.
    This is not extremely critical since most of the light kit functionality still seems to work without the motor sense wire but in some situations the light kit does behave awkwardly. I am sure if I am able to connect the motor sense wire then it would work smoothly always. Thanks!

    I love your video! You make very easy to understand for us newbies with electronic RC vehicles!
    I do have a question about a 4-pin JST plug. I have a Hobby Zone Carbon Cub S2 1.3m for my partner to train on, but it came with Spectrum electronics, where my partner and I use Futaba. There is a JST female plug to connect to for the different modes with 3 lights for the plane (Beginner, Intermediate, and Experienced). Would this work like your video above (No Solder Plug and a 2-pin connector) with a 4-pin connector? If so, which wires would go to the possitive and which would go to the negative and also how to program the radio to switch between the different modes, or would it be connected directly without connecting to the receiver?

    Or would you recommend keeping all my existing escs on my crawlers to XT60’s and have an adapter for XT60 esc to IC3 battery?

    Hi I just seen your vid about the xt60 adaptor for the servo? I believe that's how you explained it. Anyways I'm running a 1/10 buggy sky rc Toro 120 and ares pro comp 6.5 with a turnigy 5100 7.4 v 2s2p lipo. I'm having issues with foward being reverse and vice versa, and no steering. All new components. In the program card, when I select certain options, the asterisk doesn't change to the selected option. Any suggestion on any or all 3 of those issues? And (original ?) Powering the servo right now I just have the 3 pin wire from servo running to the receiver. Should I tie it into the esc via wire adaptor as shown in the above video? Thanks for any/all help you might give, in advance. I'm new to the hobby and I'm kind of just going off gut feeling and you tube videos. But I'd like to learn best possible scenarios when I can. So, again, i appreciate any help.

Not good at soldering and now I have the lights from the body that have nowhere to plug in. Is this an alternative? It’s a different plug though, they’re more like the plugs coming off the servo.

    • @mickd8188
      @mickd8188 Před 3 lety

      The lights run off 6.0volts max. This direct power lead will supply battery voltage so anywhere from 8.4v on 2s upwards depending on battery. So it will blow your lights.
      You can use a spare slot on your receiver if your bec voltage is set to 6.0v. If your servo is stock spektrum servo it is also 6.0v only also. So all good.
      You will need to fit an external bec to power an upgraded servo at higher voltage, or use a direct power servo and the lead John is showing in this video.
      Cheers mate 👍
