I did heatshrink them too. Even heavy offroading didn’t do anything.
I would solder them, put sealant on the solder joint, and heatshrink over the sealant before it dries.
A little tip for joining large gauge wires with solder, is to thoroughly tin each one first, only the very tip (don’t strip much insulation back) and then after they are both tinned, cut the ends off perfectly flat with sharp wire cutters, so they both have a flat face. Put the flat faces together and heat until the solder melts.
Of course @DerelictRobot has a reason to think this is shitty and you should never do this, so probably listen to him instead.
What sealent do you use?
And also can you use an XT90 connector as your charge port?
I would not use an XT90 for a charge port, maybe an XT60.
I use the MG Chemicals Acrylic conformal coating #419D. You can solder through it if needed later.

NOOOoooooooo!!!
that person in purple, is that a women or a man lol
I would not call that sealent, it is coating in my head
btw have you ordered some yet for me?
those trucks look amaaaaaazing. i will never be able to save money. how much?
a fucking shit ton.
i think like $800
Many thousands of miles at this point, I can say personally that a final heatshrink wrap over the phase wire connections has worked great for me. I’ve never had a single issue.
i knew it…motors included or no?
It’s everything but motors actually.
Trucks, motor mounts, pulleys, wheels.
The wheels alone are $200 retail or so if I recall.
dayuuuuum. well that aint toooo bad…right
What I find funny about them is the fact that no matter what motor you put on them still looks like they’re too small for the truck
I have some 63100s I’m going to compensate with, potentially.
I’d have to see em mounted but my opinion will probably be the same…too small
right…
What brand did you get?
Saite. Looks very similar to APS construction so take that as you will.
These are line samples at 63100 180kv 10mm shaft w/ sensors.
