You have to make sure the receiving surface is clean and hot enough to let the solder flow across the surface but not so hot as to damage anything else surrounding it.for instance when soldering deans connectors only heat the metal part long enough to see the solder flow onto the surface...use heatsinks or another matching deans plug as one to help keep the connectors from heating the plastic too much.
Tin all the surfaces first...wire ends...connector blades..battery ends..whatever and let them cool,then when you reheat it to solder the wires on all you have to heat is the solder which will keep everything else cooler.when soldering nickel cells I always run the dremel across the ends to brighten up the metal and facilitate good flow of the solder.
All this is for anything we generally use except for aluminum lipo tabs..for those I've been told we need special aluminum flux for the joint.


hope this helps
