Let me help you out there ...

"dose (Does) anny (any) one know if the new non sodering (soldering) moter (motor) wire clips are anny (any) good (?)"

I have not heard of such a thing, but they are probably not very good. Do you have an URL or something to reference this new part ?

My guess is he doesn't wanna solder on, or cant solder on his wires to the motor so he wants to use a fastener of some sort.

Once again the ol sarcasm meter is reading high jeepinaator, lol.

I think he's talking about Trinity's no solder motor leads, where a connector snaps onto the motor tab, rather than soldering a wire: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p.pgm?Q=1&I=LXJZ84&P=7

If your not a diehard racer, these will work fine, but add resistance. My suggestion: if you can solder, then solder your connectors; otherwise, go for the most convienent option.

Your right Bryceums... I think B3 Boy takes the crown for worst speller.

Yes, you should still use "copasoters" (correct spelling: capacitor). Your motor should have come with them, and your speed control should have come with them. If not, you could get away with not using them, but you may experience some glitching.

Oh, and the clips should stay on during a race. I would think Trinity manufacturers them for a tight fit. If not, you have two options:
1. Put heatshrink tubing over the clip
2. Melt a little solder onto the clip (you don't have to make a perfect solder connection... the only job it will do is prevent the connector from slipping off)

Obi, that should be "You're right..." as in "You are right...."

But you're right, he's the worst speller feller.

Instead of doing that you can solder a small wire on each lead and then use a battery plug to connect it. Just imagine your motor tabs being battery cells and the layout should make sense
