Cool! So far of the controllers I have used on a tricopter, CC is the best followed by KK. I am sure CC on Luis frame will rock.

Yeah I think the frames here at my post office now I had a note saying I have a package but I'll have to wait till Monday to get it. I really hope it's my dang dragon link that I ordered exactly a month ago and still haven't received yet! I'm pretty pissed about it. I'm debating on getting something ezuhf or something bc ppl at dragons abs won't answer my emails asking where my dragon link is. They just keep sending me a bs email saying that there not on vacation and that orders are typically getting shipped out 14 days after there ordered, well I hate to brake it to them it's been 31 days and still no dragonlink

Hey guys I'm setting up my new CC on my new tricopter and I have a question. Can I plug all the esc connectors into the CC or do I need to remove 1 or more wires from the connectors before plugging them into the board?

Depends.
General consensus is it doesn't matter.
In the open pilot wiki they tell you to remove black and red.
Try it first with all then without the black and red.

Nice flight flohio!

I've got a CC with all BEC connected and then I have another CC with just one BEC and 3 signal wires and then I have 2 others with 1 BEC and 3 signal+gnd.

All seem to work fine for me. Never had any issues.

My question is why not just hook it up like the developers intended and thats one BEC one ground and all the signal wires for each esc. They speak of a chance of a ground loop happening if you hook it up any other way. So why do guys want to roll dice with there rigs.

I'm in the "signal line only" crew. The cool thing is that you can hook it up cleanly using the method in the photo I've attached. Yours is a tri, so there would only be two signal wires in the second plug, but you probably get the idea.
