Technical Performance
The XT90 Connector Set from Fusion represents a solid engineering choice for RC applications requiring reliable power delivery. XT90 connectors are engineered to handle significant current loads whilst maintaining minimal voltage drop across the connection interface. The design incorporates gold-plated or high-quality contact surfaces that resist corrosion and oxidation, ensuring consistent performance even after extended storage or exposure to typical RC operating environments. The compact profile of XT90 connectors makes them particularly valuable in space-constrained RC applications where cable routing and component packaging are critical considerations. These connectors can accommodate cable gauges down to 12 AWG, offering flexibility when assembling custom leads for different power requirements across your RC car UK collection. Whether you're connecting high-capacity LiPo batteries to brushless speed controllers or linking charge adapters to extension leads, the XT90 format provides the electrical reliability that serious RC modellers depend upon. The connectors' mechanical design ensures positive engagement, preventing accidental disconnection during operation whilst remaining easy to separate for maintenance or reconfiguration.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What cable size do I need for XT90 connectors? — XT90 connectors can accommodate cable down to 12 AWG gauge, giving you flexibility when assembling custom leads for different RC power applications. You can use 12, 10, or 8 gauge silicone wire depending on your specific current requirements and the distance of the run.
- Are XT90 connectors suitable for high-current RC applications? — Yes, XT90 connectors are specifically designed for reliable high-current power transfer in RC applications. They feature excellent contact surfaces and are widely used in the RC community for battery-to-ESC connections where consistent electrical performance is critical.
- Can I use these XT90 connectors with my existing RC equipment? — XT90 connectors are compatible with any RC equipment designed to use XT90 interfaces, including brushless ESCs, LiPo battery packs with XT90 connectors, charge adapters, and extension leads. They're standardised across many RC brands and models.
- How many connectors do I get in this set? — This set contains 2 complete pairs, which means 2 male and 2 female XT90 connectors. This is sufficient for assembling two custom leads or replacing connectors on up to two devices.
- Is soldering required to use these connectors? — Yes, you'll need to solder these connectors onto your silicone wire leads. If you prefer pre-assembled leads with XT90 connectors already attached, those are available separately. Soldering requires basic tools and skills, but is straightforward with proper technique and practice.
- What makes XT90 different from other RC connectors like XT60 or EC5? — XT90 connectors offer a more compact profile compared to some larger connector types whilst maintaining excellent current-handling capability.
