Only a little solder is needed to bond the wires to the positive and negative terminals.

Solder the red (positive) wire of the battery connector to the positive (+) wire in the RC (in the case of this RC sub that would be the two orange and purple wires) and the black (negative) wire of the battery connector to the negative (-) wire in the RC.

No matter what colors or how the wires are configured in your RC, you'll connect positive to positive and negative to negative.
