Technical Performance
The XT90 connector represents a significant step forward in RC electrical connectivity, offering superior performance compared to older connector standards. These female connectors are engineered for high-current applications, making them ideal for use with brushless motor systems, LiPo batteries, and modern electronic speed controllers (ESCs) commonly found in 1/10 scale, 1/8 scale, and other RC vehicle formats. The XT90 design incorporates efficient gold-plated contacts that minimise resistance and voltage drop during operation, ensuring that the maximum amount of electrical power reaches your RC motor without unnecessary losses. This is particularly important when running high-performance RC cars where every volt matters for speed, acceleration, and overall responsiveness. The connectors are robust and durable, designed to withstand repeated connections and disconnections without degradation. ARRMA's manufacturing quality ensures that these connectors meet the specifications required for reliable use with modern LiPo battery packs, brushless motors, and variable-power ESCs that power today's competitive and recreational RC vehicles. Whether you're updating an older RC setup or maintaining a newer one, these connectors provide the reliability and performance that RC enthusiasts expect from genuine ARRMA components.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What are XT90 connectors used for in RC cars? — XT90 connectors are high-quality electrical connectors used to connect LiPo batteries, electronic speed controllers (ESCs), and power distribution systems in modern RC vehicles. They are designed to handle high current loads safely and efficiently, making them ideal for brushless RC cars, RC buggies, RC trucks, and other powered RC models.
- Are these connectors compatible with my RC car? — The XT90 female connectors are compatible with any RC system that uses the XT90 connector standard. This includes many modern brushless RC vehicles and contemporary LiPo battery setups. However, you should verify that your specific RC car or components use XT90 connectors before purchasing. If your vehicle uses a different connector type (such as Deans, EC3, or XT60), you may need an adapter or different connectors.
- Why would I need replacement XT90 connectors? — RC enthusiasts replace connectors for several reasons: to upgrade older vehicles with more modern connectivity, to replace worn or damaged connectors that no longer make reliable contact, to customise electrical configurations for different battery or ESC combinations, or to have spare connectors on hand for building backup harnesses and ensuring continuous RC activity without downtime.
- What makes ARRMA connectors better than generic alternatives? — ARRMA is a recognised and established RC manufacturer that produces components to consistent quality standards. Their connectors use quality materials, precision manufacturing, and gold-plated contacts that resist corrosion and maintain low electrical resistance over time. Using genuine ARRMA connectors ensures compatibility with ARRMA RC vehicles and components, and guarantees that you're getting reliable, tested products rather than untested generic alternatives.
- How do I install XT90 female connectors on my RC car? — Installation typically involves soldering the connector to your battery or power distribution harness. The female XT90 connector has two solder pads for the positive and negative connections. You should have basic soldering skills and equipment, or consult an experienced RC hobbyist or shop for installation assistance. Always ensure proper polarity (red to positive, black to negative) and allow solder joints to cool completely before use.
- Are these connectors suitable for beginners? — These connectors are more suited to intermediate to advanced RC enthusiasts who are comfortable with basic soldering and electrical work. Beginners should consider working with pre-assembled RC vehicles or asking for assistance from experienced hobbyists or local RC shops. If you're just starting with RC cars in the UK, ready-to-run (RTR) vehicles with pre-installed connectors may be a better choice until you develop these skills.
