Quadcopter Scarab – Power Distribution lead
These photos show the power distribution lead made as per the instructions that come with the Scarab 12 - Quad-X Euro frame. The wire is 20 AWG from HobbyKing. About 15mm of the silicon jacket is stripped from the end of five wires per polarity (red & black). Then the bare wire of each group of five is twisted together. Some 5mm heatshrink helped keep the leads together while being soldered. The result fitted nicely into the terminals of an XT60 connector. I used four micro-deans at the other end to connect to the ESC and one JST connector to hookup some strip LEDs.
