We don't want to force anyone to a particular type of battery or motor connector. There are many types of acceptable connectors on the market and if we start putting one on the controller, it will look like favoritism; some people also prefer to direct solder so it would be a waste for them. The aircraft world is not as standardized as the car world, thank you ROAR.

We include motor connectors on the car products because we pair them with a motor; so we can include the male and females on both products so they are compatible out of the box. And most 1/10th scale ESC/motor manufacturers use 4mm and 3.5mm on 1/18th setups, there are a few exceptions, but it's a good rule of thumb. Again we don't include battery connectors to avoid favoritism.

Hope that makes some sense.
