Is this a problem?

I received my Rostock Max V2 the other day and have been putting it together. I had some problems soldering the Onyx heater bed. One of the metal soldering pads came off. See picture below:

Is this a problem, or will it work normally?
BTW the kapton tape will be coming tomorrow via Amazon...

Thanks,
Darren

Are you referring to the white wire being directly connected to the thermistor? I don't see why that would be a problem. Just make sure it's nice and secure with kapton so the thermistor doesn't accidentally fall out of the bed due to the extra weight of the wire.

Yes, I'm talking about the thermistor wire being directly connected. I didn't think it would be an issue, but I wanted to make sure I'm not missing something...

I don't know why I wrote that. That made no sense. It's obviously soldered to the bed, the weight of the wire means nothing. Lol. :oops:
