Description
The Hobbywing Ultra-Soft Silicone Cable (13AWG) is a premium, high-current power wire engineered for 1/10 scale racing and high-performance builds. In the RC world, 13AWG is often considered the "sweet spot"—it provides lower resistance and higher current capacity than standard 14AWG, yet it remains significantly easier to route and solder than bulky 12AWG or 11AWG wires. This makes it the factory choice for high-end ESCs like the XeRun XR10 Pro and QuicRun WP-10BL120.
Key Features:
- Ultra-Flexible Strand Count: Constructed from hundreds of ultra-fine, tinned copper strands that allow the wire to navigate the tightest bends in a 1/10 scale chassis without putting stress on ESC solder pads.
- High Thermal Stability: The premium silicone jacket is rated for temperatures up to 200°C, ensuring the insulation won't fail even during the most demanding racing mains or speed runs.
- Tinned Copper Core: Each strand is tinned to prevent oxidation and facilitate fast, clean soldering. This ensures a low-resistance connection that maintains its performance over years of use.
- Enhanced "Punch": The thicker 13AWG gauge (compared to standard 14AWG kit wires) reduces voltage drop under load, providing a more consistent "punch" off the line and during corner exit.
Technical Specifications:

Wiring Tip:
When wiring a 1/10 scale competition car, the 13AWG is ideal for the battery-to-ESC leads. For the ESC-to-motor leads, ensure all three wires are cut to the exact same length. This balances the electrical resistance across all three phases of the brushless motor, which can improve timing accuracy and smoothness at high RPM.
