Soldering Qs8 

The qs8’s are excellent. They have a lot of the same characteristics that I’ve come to love with the XT90s. That hydra esc has me drooling

You might try a much thicker solder wire and a higher wattage soldering iron that way the brass in the connector wouldn’t wick so much heat from the iron, just a thought ! Great channel btw always love the content👍🏻

tip for anyone watching now but the two connectors together so you don't unaligned the plugs, also please back fill those more lol. Also it isn't a pain in the butt to heat your cup tin, just have a real soldering iron or a 200watt solder gun...

Its much easier and faster when you tint your Iron with solder before you heat up the connector and fill up with solder. On the last you fill up the most empty room with solder for more durability.

80 plus watt i iron should be used. You can plug the mate of the connector into it which will help absorb some heat to prevent the connectors from shifting from too much heat.

Great Video! Helps a lot Thanks 👍

Great job Big B

Thanks for the video

Looks great man. Ive been thinking about doing this for my bj42. Connectors get a little warm for me. One thing you may want to try out is connecting male and female sides of the connector when soldering. I do this with my xt90 to keep the bullets aligned just incase i get them too hot and start to shift.

You mentioned the charging adaptor…can these connectors be charged with the spectrum s2200 G2 charger? Do we have to make an adaptor qs8-ic5, or can it be purchased? I have been wondering how to charge these connectors…that’s the charger I have - the spectrum smart charger.

NICE TO KNOW. I WILL BE DOIMG THAT JOB IN AN UPCOMMING PROJEKT

Another suggestion would be to take a file and scratch up the inside of the bullet. and just a smidge of flux. and a little hotter iron. but nice work, making it flow nice and stick well.

A little flux goes a long way, but good job. I soldered up a few of these gigantic connectors lately and it's the 8 gauge wire that makes the job challenging not the connector. It's best to lay the blade of the soldering iron across the connector rather than pushing down on the wire with the tip of the iron. Cheers!

Thanks for the vid! What temp is good to run for soldering these?

Great soldiering job, not that I’m that great at it my self, but I can see you got it down to a fine art. 👍 What kind of dog yougot 🤣

Salut et merci mais moi j'aurais besoin d'un 12s existe il 🤔

What type of solder do you use

How do you make these connectors easier to connect and separate? I purchased the OSE 8.0 from offshoreelectric and if I connect it all the way I need pliers to separate them. Is there a trick to these? I tested 5 sets.

these are tiny wires easy to solder.... we are 200a to 300a... soldering 4awg & 6awg wire to QS8 & QS10 connectors ...

Do you not have a right hand?

That is an animal big b!!

Bro this is a great idea i never thought to do it this way im like the only one up here in maine that uses QS8 connectors to putting the plug in the end to keep them straight is fuckin genius thanks for the vid bro keep killin it buy the way i just put the xlx2 hydra in my blackjack 42 with the 1721 motor think it will work good in a boat or to much rpm ?

oh got an open end!!! nm

BIG B Big oops 16:53 forgot cover
