Some ESCs have two sensor ports, basically for packaging.
Sometimes you can't get to one of them, especially in very tightly packed 4wds. One of my cars i have to remove the motor to get to the sensor port, or take the ESC out. |

sensor wires
Hi,
I'd imagine you could use either but if it was me and fitting allowed then i'd go with the second one as many like the older hobbywing have them fitted in that position. You'd know if you connected it to either if it was working compared to not though as the motor will run smoother and usually a lot faster connected. The sensor connection allows the ESC to control the motor via timing, boost and turbo etc and without it it will run as though totally stock standard. Without the sensor connected you can change as many settings on the ESc as you like but they will have no effect at all as I found out once when I forgot to put my wire in completely.....I boosted it to hell and it made no difference and then connected it in a rush to put the car on the track and it was insanely ballistic.....silly fast and close to uncontrollable hahaa Hope this helps. |

Whichever suits your chassis, some cars will.be the vertical and some the horizontal, weigh up which is best orientation for your esc and the sensor port will be obvious

Great thank you all, thought they would probably both be the same just haven't used electric since brushed motor days. Will see which fits better it is a bit tight in there.
Thanks again. |
