Deans. If I ever feel the deans getting warm at all I'll think about changing. Until then I wouldn't bother changing everything over. Way to much stuff. 5.5mm bullets on esc to motor connection on everything. that way motors batteries escs whatever can be swapped around model to model for testing different configurations. I'm a tinkerer and rarely run the same setup in a truck for very long before the urge to try something else strikes me. I play musical motors, esc, batteries all the time.

I read an article a while back that tested a bunch of these connectors. I cant remember which magazine it was, but the conclusion I remember was that Deans, Traxxas, 5.5mm bullets all tested as basically invisible when soldered in series on a 12 gauge wire. if the resistance of the plug is equal to an equivalent length of 12ga wire then its good enough for me.


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...


Silent...But Deadly
