Overview
The Etronix XT-90 Connector (Male/Female) in black is an essential spare part for any RC hobbyist in the UK who works with XT-90 equipped gear. Whether you're updating connectors on your RC car, RC truck, or replacing worn connections on your RC batteries and charging leads, this matched pair provides a straightforward and reliable solution. The XT-90 connector standard has become increasingly popular across the RC hobby, offering excellent conductivity and secure connection for high-performance RC models and battery systems.
Supplied as a complete set with one male and one female connector, the Etronix XT-90 connector pair is ideal for enthusiasts who need to maintain, upgrade, or repair their RC equipment. If you're running a brushless RC buggy, an electric RC monster truck, or any RC model that utilises the XT-90 interface, having spare connectors on hand is a smart investment. The black finish provides a professional appearance that matches most modern RC setups and battery packs used across the UK RC community.
This product is perfect for weekend bashers, serious RC competitors, and everyone in between who wants to keep their RC gear in top condition. Rather than replacing entire harnesses or battery packs when a connector becomes damaged or worn, you can simply swap out the connector itself, saving both time and money whilst maintaining the integrity of your RC electrical systems.

Technical Performance
The Etronix XT-90 Connector represents a well-established standard in the RC hobby, engineered to provide secure, low-resistance connections for RC batteries, ESCs, and charging systems. The XT-90 connector design has become the preferred choice for many RC enthusiasts across the UK and beyond due to its combination of ease of use and electrical performance.

The male and female pairing ensures compatibility with existing XT-90 equipped RC gear, whether you're working on RC cars, RC trucks, or specialised RC models like crawlers and bashers. The black finish is both aesthetic and practical, helping to identify polarity and providing visual consistency across your RC setup. For RC hobbyists in the UK who demand reliable connections that won't let them down during important races, casual bashings, or competitive events, these connectors deliver the performance and durability needed for worry-free RC operation.
