Jernst20 Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 (edited) They look really hard, have you got any clearer close pictures? Edited April 3, 2015 by Jernst20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big turbo Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Pics not great but don't you just fill the cup parts. Pretty much the same as ec5. Make sure you tin the wire first. I use a mini blow touch for the cup part so you get good heat in to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigoggy Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 don't you just fill the cup parts. I believe that his problem is that there is no cup part, as you would expect. They are hollow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOFX Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 Hi. Tin the wire. Put the wire in the hollow bit, get it really hot & fill the hollow bit with solder . hobbyking sell similar connectors ,this is how I sorted mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayAVFC Posted April 4, 2015 Author Share Posted April 4, 2015 How does the other part of the connector fit in it if you fill it with solder? Thansk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOFX Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 The male part has a "cup" in the other end to the bit that goes on into the female plug, ehere the wire goes. That's the bit that you fill up. I'm not positive about these plugs,someone who's used them'll turn up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fornowagain Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 Fit them together, what ever is left exposed cup wise you fill with solder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuttyProfessor Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 They look like corally tubes fitted to hardcase battery packs, could solder down the side of it if you flatten the cable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
