I did yes, but that is also a worry for me. I have, um, stubby fingers so I found it impossible to seperate the deans without clamping onto each half with some pliers and then pulling them apart. Otherwise I would have to grab the wires to disconnect them, and thats a big no-no. They are great pieces, and the metal-metal contact is much better than a tamiya plug, but I think I'll have a bash at the soldering trick. If not then I will buy some deans pig-tails, and just solder them onto the batteries and esc- even I can manage that ( batteries dont melt like plastic plugs I hope...). You never know, the HVmaxx doesnt get that hot anyway so I might not need the deans anyway- Im not a serious racer after all, just a general basher/fast driver.
