That’s great thanks! A picture of how you have connected the fuse etc would be really useful.
Many thanks for your continued help!

Technically, LiFe batteries do not need a fuse like LiPo batteries do (although it is a mighty good idea to have one) and at the Antweight scale, I was already running out of weight allowance If I were to fit one into that circuit, like I do with my featherweight, it would be immediately after the link and before the LED.

Would this sort of thing do?
ie would I be able to pop the fuse into the holder, then xt60 connectors on both ends of the outgoing wire and connect it into my circuit that way? Also the wire on this seems to be different - could I even use it in an XT60?
thanks

Bit confused, is that the fuse holder you are using in the photo you posted earlier on? However, yes, you are correct.

It is yes but the wire is looped - do it just cut it?
The otehr her photo seemed to have 2 ends.
this is probably me being very stupid here!
Yes, you would just cut it

Dear all
Following my hundreds of ridiculous questions, a momentous day occurred today.
We actually got Madusa moving.
Thanks for all your advice and help as we (me and my daughter) were so excited to see the wheels spin as a result of using the TX! At the moment it is a bash not that does some impressive wheelies! Without your guidance and patience, we would not have got there!
I still need to fit the lights and a fuse and get some armour on it etc (resulting in probably more silly questions)
a few things I need to figure out so if anyone can help please do!!
1. I imagine this is in the mixing or the connection to the RX - but at the moment both wheels go forwards or backward but not opposite directions to enable us to steer it!! How do I sort this?
2. It is very sensitive to ramp up the power ie it’s either slow or bloody fast!! Any ideas how I can improve this as my daughter will be driving it and could do with a reduction in sensitivity to help her.
3. What are your thoughts on us coming to Manchester? Should we have done more testing or some practice battles - ie do we need a level of competence / experience or robustness to enter?
Cheers
Jon
