Re: [FTC]: HiTechnic Motor Controllers - Motor and Power wires fall out???

Thanks for the replys.

@Al, I have to respectfully disagree with you. I know that you are correct with regard to wires falling out that are not stripped enough, but that is not the issue we are having. Also, with regard to the post about tinning the wire ends, we are not doing that either, so that is not the problem.

The main issue is that if the wires do not come straight out of the MC, and remain straight, then they tend to work themselves loose.

Again, I simply can not understand why the MCs are not designed with plugs for the motors. If anyone can post some logical reason for the current design, and tell me why they can't be designed with plugs for the DC motors, I am very interested to hear it.
