Xt60 female to mini tamiya female ?

[vialli]

Does this cable actually exist ? As i cant find one anywhere .my skyrc65 has a male xt60 and my lipo has a mini tamiya male so need female both ends but all i can find is large female tamiya.Does anyone have a link for the correct cable or any other solution ?

Cut the tamiya off and swap it for an xt connector, do the same for the rif. If you're not confident/able to do this yourself I'm sure there would be somebody local(ish) to you who would be.

Was hoping for something plug and play

If you want to purchase then you should be able to find an what you want via Google. Search xt to tamiya and that should get you half way. The you'd need to check the tamiya positive connections as most will likely be for the RC market and the polarities of the tamiya connector could be backwards. You'd need to pop the pins from the connector and swap them over to match the battery.

Try ebay, when I bought my xt to mini tamiya adaptor from there they seemed to have every permutation possible. As above I did have to swap the wires over at the tamiya end but this was a 2 minute job.

Been able to find xt60 female to tamiya but not mini tamiya female for some reason.

Are you sure about that? Their website says it's female (looks like it too)

 

In which case you'll need one of these: https://hobbyking.com/en_us/mini-tamiya-female-to-xt60-male-battery-adapter-2pcs.html?wrh_pdp=1&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=google_gb_shopping&countrycode=GB&gclid=CjwKCAjw3K2XBhAzEiwAmmgrAsOC6b7WeemgLlRDKJ_WqjTOV7ZJjJSvaf_qvmx0B3ThucaqPdcKThoC4qkQAvD_BwE&___store=en_us

 

and then swap the wires over in the Tamiya end.

Yes, its the holy grail of cables... 

Of course you can get them, you need to look via an internet search by wording it properly.

I needed a tamiya / deans conversion cable because my cells were Tamiya and the Perun I installed was Deans, so I searched via online search and up came a hobby shop and I bought a couple, they cost me £6 inc postage, god only knows what they cost now... but an internet search will bring up non ebay and non amazon results. 

What are you looking for?

Male XT60 to Female Micro (mini) Tamiya or 
Male XT60 to Male Micro (mini) Tamiya or
Female XT60 to Male Micro (mini) Tamiya or

Female XT60 to Female Micro (mini) Tamiya?

The cable you need is xt male to tamiya female (assuming your battery leads are male - could we see a pic to be sure? The standard is female). 

The socket on the sky charger is female.

1st picture is my battery connecter,mini tamiya male so i need a female.2nd picture my battery connector next to standard tamiya so defenitly mini.5th piture charger box says female. But does it mean you "need" a female?.3rd shows my charger socket.4th is difference between male and female xt60 ,so going by the 4th picture then the sky connectorcis male and i need a female xt60?im confused now.

No, the connector of the sky charger is xt60 MALE and your battery cable is mini tamiya female, so you need an xt60 FEmale to mini tamiya male cable.

(I get why its confusing because they both have male/female aspects, but it's the outer plastic part rather than the inner pins that define whether it's male or female)

 

I believe this is what you need:

Edit: No, I was wrong about the xt60!  But this is the cable you need.

God my head is spinning now lol

pretty sure this is the wrong way around

[concretesnail]

With tamiya im sure it's the pins rather than the shell which genders the terminal.
