I am hooking up MM with my SR in my TXT-1 and was just wondering if I need to install the included capacitors that came with the motors? I've never used them before so that why I am curious on what i should do? Thanks!:confused:

If the motor doesn't have capacitors on it then you'll need to install some...2 for sure 3 is best.

I guess it doesn't it came with 3 little capacitors in a bag for each motor, I just didn't know if they were needed since I have used other motors in my other trucks and they never had capacitors on them and they always ran fine for me, was this bad to do? What exactly are there purpose?

The caps aren't for the motors protection they are for the receiver. What they do is filter the "noise" out of the motors and power wires so it doesn't create noise and play havoc with your receiver and give you glitching problems. You will have to go to your LHS and pick up another 3 caps since you need 3 caps per motor and the TXT uses two of them.
