Novak 4 and two wires????
I just received my new Novak 4 and receiver. In looking at the esc I noticed 2 wires red in color that come from the same place as the switch. They are bare on the ends and they is a small piece of shrink tubing on one of them. Looks factory to me. I took a pic. no solder marks or anything.
Is this right and what are they for??
Thanks
Scott

The two red wires are only supposed to be making contact with eachother when running 4 cells from what I remember. For 6 & 7 cells, they should be separated.

Ya
I went over to Novak and found what they were for! Leave them alone for 4-6 cells and solder them together for 7+
Glad to see that is still unused and not messed with.
This and some other stuff is going into my roller queen.

Are you sure that's right? I'm pretty sure thats backwards and that connecting the red wires bypasses the BEC for 4 cell use.littlescreamers wrote:Ya

BTW, if you need another one I have a NESC-4, an NESC-1x and a TEKIN PX if you need any more speedos.
We are all heading towards old age. Get there slower by bike.

Years ago I started off with nothing ... and I still have most of it left.
