Wires tinned and ready to be soldered. Important to tin and apply flux.

Soldering the mossy. Top tip wrap tinfoil around the wire and then pull the shrink tubing over it and the foil will act as a heat shield so it doesn't shrink.

Glad you like it so far rags, wanted to make sure everything fitted before paint.
 
Looks and sounds awesome,can't think of a more deserving nutter to have it.
 
Looking good BDB nice mod!

I would suggest adding a 5.6V diode to the gate, it will add some low volt protection for the battery - only reason I say this is that I killed a 1000mAh 2S Turnigy this weekend by letting it go too low on my raptor and leaving it plugged in to box for a day!
 
Looking awesome, can't wait to see this progress. Credit where it's due you're bloody amazing at building these things mate :D

I'm very very meticulous with checking.my battery charge level, in fact if I.go out for a long.time I take a multimeter to check them.. haha
Ever since vapefest when I drained a battery to 2.6v... >.>
Plus, the voltmeter will do both under load, and off load without an.attie attached ;)
