Hi guys,

Which ones are decent? Easy to get apart but won't fall apart? And where can I get them from? :eh?:

Obviously need more females than males.

This may sound crazy, but what about the deans ones?

Or are you in minge mode again?

I find the stock 'Tamiya' style connectors are excellent, especially for high current applications...

would be perfect for a 24hr car.... :woot:

if you go on the bay of E, there are loads, sell them in BIG packs, red plastic bodies, I use them for the kids, and considering how 'ham fisted' they are, not broke one in 18 months

I got mine from modelsport, they are good sturdy ones, but they can be tricky to get apart though!

Hey G - have a look at the Traxxas VXL Connectors as well.

The problem with non Deans "Deans" is that they do vary a bit to be honest.
Ladt I knew Horizon distributed the offical ones - sure Darren will pop up in a mo to confirm he has them in stock ;-)
