Hi,
This is my first RC boat build. I have been cleaning up and repainting a racing hull kindly donated by Mark (craftysod).
All my electrics/electronics arrived today, and now I need a little help in connecting them all together!
I have a Viper Marine 15 ESC, and radiolink Rx (the 2.4GHz one from Giantcod).
I assume the ESC will power the Rx? Is that correct or do I need a separate battery?
The main battery I will be using is a 12V 7AH.
The ESC connector has 3 coloured wires, orange, red and brown to connect to the Rx.
I assume this connector plugs into position 7/B on the Rx, but which way round?
Also, the Rx has a very short piece of wire for the antenna (about 80mm). Is this sufficient, or do I need to connect this up to a separate antenna?
