at hk they have some nice 8mm plugs. I don't know if that's too much. they're not quite convenient...

very interesting topic. when people invest 100's $ in excellent electronics, it's also important to think about plugs, wires etc, and if there are any weak spots.

I ordered some 5.5mm plugs from Hobbycity. But they weren't that cheap; 12 dollar for 10 pair.

But MGM says that because of low-current connectors ESC's can go into fire. Well, when I started this hobby I had a 10 turns brushed + LRP brushed ESC. I used Tamiya connectors, and they melted three times, but to the motor or ESC nothing happened? Can anybody explain this? Or was it just lucky me?
