The inclusion of matching heat shrink means you can finish your wiring neatly and securely every single time, achieving a professional-looking installation that not only looks better but performs more reliably. Whether you're 14 or 74, if you're involved in the RC hobby, having a pack of quality XT90 connectors in your workshop is simply good sense.
Key Features
- XT90 Connector Standard — The XT90 connector format is the most widely adopted high-current power connector in modern RC applications, providing excellent conductivity and secure mechanical connection that resists accidental disconnection during aggressive driving or racing.
- Pack of 10 Connector Pairs — This generous quantity means you have enough connectors to service multiple RC vehicles, build new projects, or maintain a comprehensive workshop stock without needing to reorder frequently, saving both time and money in the long run.
- Includes Matching Heat Shrink — Each pair comes with corresponding heat shrink tubing, allowing you to finish your connections with a professional appearance and provide additional protection against short circuits and environmental exposure.
- Reliable Power Connection — XT90 connectors are engineered for dependable, secure power delivery across a wide range of RC applications, from small electric buggies to larger brushless RC trucks, ensuring your vehicles stay connected during critical moments.
- Workshop Essential — This bulk pack is the practical choice for users maintaining multiple RC builds or regularly refreshing their existing fleet, eliminating the frustration of running out of connectors at critical moments.

Technical Performance
The Radient XT90 Anti Spark Pairs deliver the engineering quality expected from established RC component manufacturers. XT90 connectors have earned their reputation through consistent performance in demanding RC applications, handling the high-current loads generated by brushless motors in 1/10 scale buggies, trucks, and crawlers, as well as larger vehicles. The anti-spark design incorporated into XT90 connectors significantly reduces the arcing that can occur during connection and disconnection, protecting both your connectors and your valuable RC electronics from potential damage. This feature is particularly important when working with LiPo batteries, which can be sensitive to electrical spikes. The connector's robust construction ensures positive engagement and reliable contact throughout your RC vehicle's operation, whether you're bashing around a local circuit, tackling technical rock crawling terrain, or competing in organised RC racing events. Heat shrink included with each pair provides additional insulation and mechanical protection, crucial for longevity when your RC car is subjected to vibration, impacts, and environmental moisture. The compact size and reliable connection mechanism make these connectors suitable across the full spectrum of modern electric RC applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is an XT90 connector and why do RC hobbyists use them? — XT90 connectors have become the industry standard for high-current power connections in electric RC vehicles because they provide excellent conductivity, secure mechanical engagement, and incorporate anti-spark technology that protects your electronics during connection and disconnection. They're found on nearly all modern brushless RC cars, trucks, and crawlers in the UK RC hobby scene.
- Why should I buy a bulk pack of 10 pairs instead of individual connectors? — Having a workshop stock of spare XT90 connectors is incredibly practical. You avoid the frustration of waiting for single connectors to arrive when you need to refresh a power lead, build a new vehicle, or repair an existing one. This pack represents better value than buying connectors individually and ensures you're never caught short during an RC session.
- Are these connectors suitable for beginners? — These connectors are recommended for users aged 14 and above, and they're best suited to people with some experience in RC assembly and soldering. If you're new to RC hobbies, you may want to have an experienced hobbyist help you with installation, as proper soldering technique is important for reliable connections. However, once you're familiar with basic RC assembly, XT90 connectors are straightforward to install.
- Will these connectors work with my RC car or truck? — XT90 connectors are the standard fitting on virtually all modern brushless RC vehicles in the UK market. If your RC car, truck, buggy, or crawler uses LiPo batteries and brushless motors, it almost certainly has XT90 connectors. These pairs will allow you to build replacement power leads, refresh tired connectors, or create new battery connections.
- Do I need to do anything special with the heat shrink? — The heat shrink is included to provide insulation and protection for your soldered connections. After soldering the connector leads to your battery or wiring, slide the heat shrink over the joint and apply gentle heat (using a heat gun, lighter, or heat shrink tool) to shrink it snugly around the connection. This protects against short circuits and adds mechanical strength to the joint.
- How many connectors do I actually need? — This depends on your RC hobby situation. A single RC vehicle typically needs one connector pair (positive and negative). If you maintain a fleet of 5-10 vehicles, own multiple batteries, or regularly build new RC models, a pack of 10 pairs is perfect for keeping your workshop stocked with spares.
