Not one bit. They really did a bang up job with their stuff this time around. Referencing the images below, the motor leads stick out about 3/16" and that's it. They also slide in rather firmly and don't slide out very easily which is a major plus.
You solder your motor leads right onto the female bullet receiver connectors and the motor itself has the Bullets they slide into. I'll try and snap a pic of mine for you, though I was certain I had but I can't find them ATM.
This picture shows how neat and tidy the end bell is:
I just wish they could revise it so all the connections reside right next to one another.
Here it is with leads all soldered up:
