Most people either use 4mm plugs or hard-wire the motor wires directly to the ESC wires. The plugs makes swapping motors and/or ESCs a little easier, but hard-wiring provides a better connection.

Yup, just remove the red wire from the throttle plug. Clipping the wire works, but a better way is to pull the actual connector out of the plug. Just use the tip of an Xacto blade to slightly bend back the plastic tab holding the connector in and pull it out. Then, I fold the wire back against the throttle cable and heatshrink it.
