Castle 5.5 mm bullet connectors
I stopped by the LHS Saturday and picked up a couple of packages of these connectors and just spent the afternoon soldering them up to charge adapters, ESC, and a series harness. I went to hook things up and they did not fit my other 5.5mm connectors. I then got out the calipers to check them only to find out that they where actually 6.5mm. THE PACKAGES SAY 5.5 BUT CONTAIN 6.5 CONNECTORS. I don't know how wide spread this is or how many were distributed before they realized what happened (if they know). I just thought I would warn everyone before they end up in the same boat as I.
