Here you go:



Made up a charge lead:



Piggy backed 2 batteries together for longer run times:
(its not metalic paint, just dust!!!)



Charge lead attached to truck:



Power goes from the batteries through a tamiya plug to the charge socket then + goes to the switch and from there to the mfu via another tamiya plug with the -.

I fitted the tamiya plugs so as it was "plug and play" with future batteries etc.

Hope this makes sense, I can't take any pics of the wiring with out taking the cab off.
