Wiring & getting started
- Power off first
Disconnect the battery or supply before cutting or soldering any lead.
- Match the colours
Join white to the signal wire, red to positive and black to negative (ground) on your device. Check your device's own wire colours, as some use orange, red and brown instead.
- Solder and insulate
Solder each joint and cover it with heat-shrink so no bare copper is left showing.
- Plug in the right way round
On a receiver or servo header, black goes to the negative or ground pin, usually the outer edge. Check the markings before powering up.
