Deans wiring is a little thicker than standard wiring and has better insulation around the copper wire.  It gives a little better protection for corrosion and electrical mishaps.  The connector is also different.

If anyone else has a better answer, feel free to correct me...

You can buy them at RC/airplane hobby shops And I Think the Gearbox might have them and install it for u. They are usualy the same price or a buck more.

i found everything i needed for 12 sets, for under 20$. i dont know what gearbox will charge, but it might be cheaper to do it yourself.

unless you have never soldered before... but its not too hard to learn

so then you would be paying $10 for two plugs, then another $10 to install them?


hell, for that much money you could get the materials online (as i mentioned) and DIY...
