AS 150 Standards

- I was asked a while back if there was a standard for use on the AS-150. I have never come accross a "standard" so to speak. I have seen different people use them as they think. In this video I discuss my method and why I use it this way. This way works for both 6s and 12s configurations.

As always, thank you for watching.
I do male with spark arrestor side on rig or ESC side. Then I always have a matched pair of batteries where I write 1A and 1B. The A battery is like yours with both female ends. But the B battery has one male (hollow non spark arrestor) and one female. This is on all my series rigs because extra connectors create resistance and problems. Yes you should always pay attention when plugging them in. 😂
Good discussion. I was wondering how I might do this, so I find this helpful. I appreciate you talking about this and making the video!
Happy this helps you, thanks for taking the time to watch!
I am putting the male antispark RED and female BLACK on the battery. And female RED and male BLACK on the ESC. That way I can use it for 6S or 12S quite easy, without an additional cable. If you put some heat shrink tube on the two battery cable, it is nearly impossible to short cricuit them. And since I have more helis than batteries, having antispark on the battery is the cheaper option.
Very good way of running them in series with no messing around with cabling. The heat shrink is a good idea. I’ve taken to keeping them capped so this is a bit less of an issue but still presents itself if the caps came out.
I always heard, You have positive on all Male and negatives on all female for the batteries and the opposite for esc. Then when running in series you can just plug the positive M of battery 1 to negative F of battery 2. I always heard less connectors the better
This is probably the proper way to go about it for the least amount of connections.
as150 connectors are loose most of the time, I try to tighten the ring inside but it doesn't seem to work very well.. Any advice?
Outside of tightening the ring they may be worn out or the tolerances were off from factory. The ones I use are too tight but never have to worry about accidental uncoupling.
I prefer the way that allows for easy series connection even if it does allow for an accidental short.
Can totally see the pull for running them this way. Especially true if your using them for camera rigs or other heavily used professions. The speed of battery changes begins to outweigh the risks.
Thanks!
This is very informative, I'd like change my 6 mm bullet connectors to AS 150's on my Losi 5T (?)
These AS 150's seem to plug & unplug better than a bullet connector, Am I my assuming correct?
The main pulls of the AS150 is the anti spark feature and how strong they fit together. I’d take them over a bullet connection every time.
@@breaksteel I'm sold; thanks for the video, also I like your standard.
