My friend picked up a Traxxas Stampede a few weeks ago and we got to bash last week and I got to play with this TRX connectors a bit. I have to say, its shit loads easier to pull them apart then my deans. My deans are performing well, but they are a real pain to solder correcly and then having to cover up the joins to prevent shorts. Ironically my SMC Lipo's orginally came with TRX as a misorder, but I was so impatient I immediatly switched to Deans. Now after trying both, I think I may get rid of the Deans and go TRX for convienence.
