PRO TIP: If you have a way to determine each motors direction of rotation correctly (with its associated
ESC); confirming the correct ESC-to-Motor wiring at this point, can save you some time later in the
build process. Looking from the rear of the Club Racer to the front, the front left motor needs to turn
Clockwise(CW), the front right CounterClockWise (CCW), the rear left CCW and rear right motor needs
to turn CW
Otherwise if you do not have a way to determine the motor’s direction of rotation, continue with the
setup and later on we will cover what to do to ensure the correct direction of rotation for each motor.
Solder the 3 motor cables (of all 4 motors) directly to the 3 ESC solder points
With the ESC in position on the underside of the arm, adjust the length of the ESC Red and Black input
power cables at the other end of the ESC, so that they will be able to reach the PDB, (remembering that
you need to leave a 10mm gap between the end of the ESC and the central Club Racer frame)
After you have soldered the motors to one side of the ESCs (but before soldering the other side of the
ESCs to the PDB), cut some 15mm width Heat Shrink Tubing into 2 x 35mm lengths and 2 x 60mm
lengths. Slide the 2 x 60mm lengths of Heat Shrink tubing over the ESCs for the two rear arms and slide
the 2 other pieces of tubing over the 2 ESCs for the front arms.
Note: Do not apply heat to the heat shrink at this point (unless you have already confirmed that each
motors direction of rotation is correct)
