Has anyone used the AS150's they look really nice, 7mm size and anti-spark.
Thinking of using them on my MT410.

I tried them and not like them. I find them to difficult to solder and not liking the separate connectors. I am going to stay with the castle creations 6.5mm.Has anyone used the AS150's they look really nice, 7mm size and anti-spark.

I use EC5's as that's what I use on all my heli's. Majority of heli flyers use EC5's so I just use them across the board to maintain consistency. Never had an issue soldering them and actually find them pretty easy to use. I've tried XT60/90's, but considering I have a bag of like 100 EC5 connectors. . won't be changing from them anytime soon.
Key to soldering EC5 is to not overfill the cup with solder. I usually strip about 1/8" from the wire, tin it, then fill the cup about 1/2 way with solder, and then bring the wire near the tip of the iron and then just plunge it into the cup. Hold it there for a few seconds and you have a nice solid connection. I then use an EC5 tool from Progressive RC to tap the barrel into the connector. If you do end up getting solder on the outside of the cup, just use some desoldering braid and it cleans up nicely.
