I can never remember the size of the plugs on the MM, but that isnt really important. I am fairly sure there arent any wires on the motor, so you have to solder on some 10 or 12 gauge wires, with the plugs on the opposite end. So long as the plugs on the esc & motor are the same size, thats the important thing. I still recommend changing them to 4mm or 5.5mm, so you will need 3 male & 3 female. Then you will be able to swap wires around and remove the motor for cleaning purposes with no hassle.

When I look at the pic on the lehner or FD site it shows 5 or 6 gold pugs sticking out from it. The one on FD isnt the hi-amp. The MM comes with 4mm plugs. So 5mm plugs are 2.50 for eack plug? Or for 3 males and 3 females?

If they show 6 plugs on the back of a 19xx then they have the wrong picture associated with that motor. Only the 30xx will have 6 plugs because they are simultaneously high-amp and delta/wye switchable. Judging from the scale of the 19xx pictures on the LMT website I would say they use 4mm connectors on the back

Emaxx- if you find a 1940 let me know. I have been looking for months and FD has not had one in stock even thought his website says he does.

i have the 1940/7 hi amp, paired with a MM esc. i have it connected using 5.5mm connectors. i had to cut the MM bullets off, and soldered the 5.5mm bullet end on instead. kind of overkill as the MM wires are only 13 gauge IIRC...that 5.5mm bullet is huge on a tiny wire. i used 3 short pieces of 10 gauge wire from the motor to the 5.5mm connector. also overkill as the system is only as good as the thinnest wire, but i did this in case i upgrade the esc in the future.
