Motor question

[civic freak]

i found a great motor i want to use but i dont want to do all that soldering what happens if i dont put an those little thingies (not the wire but the thing atached to it i think theyre called capicitors)

i dont think it matters. i snipped off the black capacitor on my stage 2 drag and all it did was make my car go faster! the orange one u should put on if u run ur car with other electric devices around u ( tv's, radio, etc.). so i think u can do without the capacitors as it lets more raw power go to the motor.

do watch out though....dont use more than 5 cells without the caps or u might fry the ESC! u might also ruin the motor if u pump too much juice into it.
