Hello everyone,
I received my Turnigy 5000 mAh 3S LiPo battery today. I must say after looking at the 1.8 Ah pack, this is total awe  Salute. I am intending to use it in my Quadcopter, The Motors rating are 1800 kV brushless outrunner and 20A esc's. Are all the specifications in coherence ?. Also where could i avail the female connector counterparts for this colossal pack. According to my measurements, i suppose i will be needing  5 mm JST plugs.. Please guide me on this Smiley

Do you mean 5mm bullet connectors?  JST plug is a type of battery connector.

5mm Bullet connector for 20A esc and motor  Head Scratching No way Giggle
I think You meant to say about the JST plug coming out from battery right?
5mm Is the most common JST plug.. But I will recommend to use XT60 instead of that and be safe..

JST plugs can handle about 8 amps max. Anymore you risk ovreheating the plug and thin wires.

@Arun Sir  and theleabres,
Yes, i meant the JST plug coming out of the battery. If i use XT60 connectors i wil have to resolder  the new connectors, will it hamper the current flow ? Any female substitute of the genuine JST plug ? Also where could i get wires for the same rating. I am enclosing the pics of the connector and battery

Thank you Smiley will do as you suggested. I was wondering, if the soldering  was not uniform it might cause charge accumulation.. How about the wires ?

That looks like what is called a banana plug.  It connects to the ESC with one male and one female connector.

You do not need expensive silicone wires. A 3 to 3.5sqmm wire from a local electronics shop will also suffice. This is what i have on my quad running a zippy 5000mAh 45c Lipo. Also, the 5.5mm stock bullet connectors are very diff to the ones available here. The 5.5 ones that i got from RCB do not fit at all. Got a pack from HK itself. Also, XT-60 is rated to handle currents of upto 60-70A(pls correct me if i am wrong) while the max constant current available is 5Ah*25c equals 125amp. IMHO, KEEP THE STOCK BULLETS ON as changing the connectors will not help u exploit the full potential of this lipo. Cheers!

Sir,
I needed the connectors, as i am doing this as a part of my final year project. Do you have two connectors in spare. It would be greatly appreciated. I believe, a shipment from HK will take a month more, Smiley-

Usually, you don't change the battery connectors.  Usually, you find the connectors that match the battery and attach those connectors to the ESC. 

Contact hobbysea.  He has connectors as well as a deans plugs (pairs).

It would be helpful if you can put up the link. Is the product id T5000.3s.25? If it is, then it has 4mm bullets. What i have are 5.5mm ones. If you are willing to solder these both on your battery and esc, pm me your address and i'll send u 2 pairs. Cheers!
