http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__10255__3_5mm_3_wire_Bullet_connector_for_motor_5pairs_bag_.html

These will plug into your motor leads or you can fit them to your motor leads. You do not have to use the plastic covers - I just put heat shrink on each connector as insulation.

For the esc battery plug you use the mating plug to whatever comes with your battery or fit a different pair of connectors to both sides - HXT60 or T connectors (DEANS).
Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed. Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes & dreams.

Your next question will be : "How do I get the motor to run in the right direction?"
The answer to that is swap any two pairs of connectors with each other and the motor will run the other way.

Sooty: any two pairs? that's 4 wires...
A minimal technical knowledge is required for this hobby; please ensure you know the differences between up and down.

You end up with four wires when you undo 2 motor connections - two male and two female - or I did last time I tried it.
