Default Servo to receiver connectors

I run nitro cars, and I hate the fact that the the battery to receiver connection is with a servo plug. They are so weak, and the pins bend easily. Does anybody know of an alternative solution? A bigger connector? The Deans are too bulky and too hard to unplug, and using a switch adds another point of failure.

Looking forward to everyone's suggestions.

since the receiver is in the box on a nitro vehicle (usually) that plug is protected. I put a mini deans on mine which was outside the box so that I could disco there to charge it and balance without taking both boxes apart to get to connectors. Thats one option. Stare at it long enough and it will make sense where to hook it up at.

We do have the receiver in the box, but on on road cars the battery is outside. Normally there's an extension from the receiver to outside the box, and that's where we plug in. I like the idea of the mini deans, didn't know they were mad. Ill order a couple to try.

Thanks!!👍
