I am wondering what type of solder to get? I am looking at 63/37 and 60/40 mixes but there are still a few options for each.

Also has anyone bought the cheap hong kong deans connectors from ebay? Are they any good?

What size banana plugs do you all run for motor/esc and esc-->batteries?
Genuine Deans are the way to go, the knock offs don't last/stay tight as long and I've had the plastic housings crack.
bullet plugs, 4mm is the most common for 1/10th scale.
