We have to remember that even if our setups pull ~200A, it's only for a brief time. The average is MUCH less. Of course, the least amount of resistance is better, but unless you find the minimal voltage drop at really high current to be unacceptable, Deans are fine.

However, I do wish Deans would come out with a new set of plugs; something with a larger grip area and larger current capacity and still polarized/keyed. The regular Deans are good for smaller 10th scale cars/trucks for weight and size, but this is less of a concern in the larger 8th scale+ vehicles.
