well that and the bigass cheetah 2N is taking up a good portion as well, it prevents the wires from easily tucking into the U shape created by the gearbox and motorcage.

I had crappy knockoff deans that were ridiculous hard to plug into real deans, and I'm also a bit leery of some of the solder joints. I've layered shrinktube to build up strength as well as shrink tube over the deans plug and the wires to create a pulling surface to pull them apart.

Just happened today when I was changing a newly obtained gun to Deans.
Accidentally put Male plug on the battery... Didn't notice until I want to charge...
WTF did I solder...

Last deans I put on my stuff I drilled holes through the blade and put the wire through so it does a Z through the hole so wire on top & bottom. Solder & heatshrink and all good.

Nice idea.
