Some members ask about wiring in a new RX13/14 board, so I thought I would post in a few pics and links from around the web:

Upgrade to RX18: http://www.rccommand.com/guides/upgrade.php

In the RX14 pic below I seem to recall that the Left Hand +/- indicators have been transposed, and that they actually connect the other way around...though advancing senility could prove me wrong!  ::)

you are correct on the polarity of the motors rob i usually remove the  plugs and hard wire direct to the board just incase of pop out

good general info post 

the only complaint I have with the RX 18 is the cable harness that links the board to the upper hull it is to short
I have cut the one off the redundant RX 13 board and am going to extend the RX 18 harness by cutting one of the connectors off and soldering the loose ends to a piece of strip board then solder the EX RX13 harness to the other side of the strip board thus extending the RX18 cable harness and making sure that the wires are in the correct order

had to do the same for the mattorro k/tiger
simple to do as brel said make sure you take time on the colour coding and remember h/long use any colour for the wires and its not like wiring a 3 pin house plug

but a lot safer as the voltage is 7.2 and not 240
