I do have a biased opinion though, I will never buy a Tekin as long as they use the solder post setup. It doesnt look very clean, nor do the connections look very strong, even in the above photo. I know this will probably never happen, but what if a hex driver hits those posts while the battery is connected, or a screw comes loose and get wedged between the posts during a main. Not to mention its a hell of a lot more difficult to solder in a new motor than to simply disconnect bullets. Not something I want to deal with.

how is everyones servo wires nonexistent? Do you cut the extra wire and splice it back together? The servo and transponder wire in my 22 and ZX5 are like spaghetti!

Futaba servo connectors, cut them to your desired length then crimp on a new connector. But remember once you cut them them might not fit into other vehicles. You can use them on any of your electronics that plug into your receiver.
