Connectors

 

 

As LiPo baterias têm todos os tipos de potência esperando ser libertada, e nós queremos tirar o máximo dela para dar ao motor. De nada serve ter uma grande bateria acoplada a um péssimo conector.

 

Maus conectores aumentam a resistência e isso impede de usarmos a potência que temos de modo eficiente.

 

 

Traxxas Connectors

 

Traxxas conectores são geralmente utilizados em carros e caminhões R/C, embora alguns entusiastas de avião tenham passado a utilizar-los também.

O principal apelo desses conectores são a facilidade de montagem. Os terminais são separados da caixa de plástico, tornando-os mais fáceis para iniciantes para soldar.

 

Eles não necessitam de Heat Shrink (protector termo retrátil), pois os terminais estão protegidos assim como a polaridade evitando de ser mal ligados. Finalmente, eles têm a maior área de superfície, mais do que qualquer dos outros conectores e são, provavelmente, os mais fáceis de conectar

 

Deans Connectors

 

Deans Connectors are really the king of connectors. They've been around seemingly forever, and have been the top choice for the discerning R/C enthusiast for quite some time now. They are somewhat difficult to solder, especially for novice users. Deans connectors slide together smoothly, and are very well designed. Like almost every modern connector, they are polarity protected. Currently, they are neck-and-neck with Traxxas connectors for the title of most popular connector - Traxxas has the edge in the R/C surface category, but Deans dominates in the air.

EC3 Connectors

 

EC3 connectors came onto the scene because Horizon Hobby was looking for a connector to replace the Tamiya connector as its standard plug. So the story goes, Horizon approached Deans with the intent to license the connectors and obtain them at a bulk rate (so they could install them on their batteries at the factory). Deans refused to be "reasonable" in negotiations, so Horizon was left to come up with an alternative. They found the EC3 and licensed that connector. From there, it's no surprise that the EC3 spread like wildfire. While they aren't much fun to assemble, they have a sizeable foothold in the R/C airplane market.

Tamiya Connectors

 

Only through the shear force of Tamiya's market share did these connectors take on their name. Originally called a 'Molex' connector, these connectors were the de facto standard of the hobby industry for years. Popularized by Tamiya in their bazillion R/C cars, these connectors came on every vehicle until very, very recently. Even today, some R/C manufacturers still use the Tamiya connector on their vehicles (Axial, I'm looking at you). This is a terrible connector with lots of resistance. You are more likely to melt these connectors than anything else. If you have a LiPo that has a Tamiya connector on it, cut it off and solder on one of the above connectors.

Venom Connectors

 

Venom's offering to the connector world sounded really great on paper. When they were announced, I was quite excited about the idea of having a connector that would interface with the four most popular connectors on the market. However, when they came out and I got to see them in person... Let's just say that we pretty much always cut off the Venom connectors to solder on the connector that our customer is actually using. The Venom connectors come with adapters to interface with Traxxas, Tamiya, Deans, and EC3 plugs. None of these adapters work particularly well in my experience. The only reason I bring them up is because they come standard on all Venom's batteries.

Anderson Power Poles

 

These connectors were wide-spread in the early days of radio control. As most of our stuff is borrowed from other industries, Anderson Power Poles are no different. Originally designed by the ham radio industry for their 12V DC standard connector, they were quickly adopted in the radio control community. Power Poles are the only plug on this list that is hermaphroditic, meaning that the plug is neither male or female. They are all the same - so no worrying about which gender plug goes on the battery or the speed control. They're much rarer in the R/C world today, but they are probably my favorite plug. They do take up a lot of room, though, and as such, may not be useful in many applications.

 

XT-60 Connectors

 

XT-60s tem ganho terreno nos ultimos anos. Foram desenvolvidos pelos chineses, pela empresa AMASS, posteriormente HobbyKing ou comprou a patente ou fabrica sobre licenciamento. O XT-60 tem sido adoptado pele facto da sua prevalência nas baterias Lipoque vêm directamente da China. São fáceis de soldar e são compactas.

JST-XH Connectors

 

This plug is as close to an industry standard as we will ever have in a balance plug. It comes on almost all the major brands, from Traxxas and Venom to E-Flite and Duratrax. Most of the cheap battery places out of China use this plug as well. While it's not quite as nice as the Thunder Power plug below, it's ubiquitous, and that makes it the logical choice for these brands. There are very few manufacturers that don't use the JST-XH plug for their balance lead. Just make sure to unplug it by grasping the plastic housing. Pulling on the wires will almost certainly pull the wires out of the housing, potentially shorting the battery out.

 

Thunder poer (TP) Plugs

 

I bemoaned Thunder Power's choice of balance connector for years. Thunder Power makes some of the nicest (and most expensive) LiPo packs in the industry, but their connector is not compatible with 95% of the chargers on the market, at least out of the box (most chargers will require an adapter from the more common JST-XH to the TP connector). That having been said, it's a nicer design, with a little clip on the top of the plug, allowing the user to unplug the connector much more easily. It's hard for me to recommend this connector, as it's only used on Thunder Power and Flite Power battery packs. But I'll begrudgingly admit it's a better plug than the JST-XH.

Questões relacionadas com a soldadura dos Connectors

 

Nunca corte o fio Positivo e Negativo ao mesmo tempo.

 

Cortar ambos os fios ao mesmo tempo equivale a um curto-circuito na bateria, o que irá gerar uma grande quantidade de calor. Pense nisso desta maneira - quando um soldador solda duas peças de metal juntos, isso é chamado Arc Welding - e o mesmo princípio está em jogo no Arc Welding.

 

Corte, solde, e use um Heat Shrink (protector termo retrátil)                                   se necessário, um fio de cada vez.

Pode demorar um pouco mais, mas é de longe a forma mais                              segura de soldar os fios da bateria.

 

 

O vermelho é positivo                       e o preto é negativo.

 

 

 

Se a bateria, o ESC ou outro dispositivo que quiser ligar não usa o paradigma preto/vermelho então:

  • geralmente o fio de cor mais clara é positivo e o mais escuro é negativo.

  • Se ambos os fios são preto, olhar para um deles para ver se tem traços brancos nele - que é o fio positivo.
