You end up with four wires when you undo 2 motor connections - two male and two female - or I did last time I tried it.
Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed. Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes & dreams.

A minimal technical knowledge is required for this hobby; please ensure you know the differences between up and down.

Your next question will be : "How do I get the motor to run in the right direction?"
The answer to that is swap any two pairs of connectors with each other and the motor will run the other way.

http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__10255__3_5mm_3_wire_Bullet_connector_for_motor_5pairs_bag_.html

These will plug into your motor leads or you can fit them to your motor leads. You do not have to use the plastic covers - I just put heat shrink on each connector as insulation.

For the esc battery plug you use the mating plug to whatever comes with your battery or fit a different pair of connectors to both sides - HXT60 or T connectors (DEANS).

Alright thanks for the answer. I just have one more question. I bought this motor:
http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=12919

So which connector/adapter would be appropriate for it?

I bought these two by the way.

#1. http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=5487

#2. http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=9572

# 1 is for the motor and #2 is for the battery.

Yes - binding is non destructive - you can re-bind as often as you like. It won't achieve anything different as once a TX / RX combo is bound it will keep working unless "un-bound" by an electrical glitch or an act of God or something when it will no longer work.

You can bind as many receivers as you can afford to your particular TX so that you can have a ready-bound receiver in every model.

The only thing you will find near impossible to do is fly all the models at the same time using the one transmitter.
