Default RE: T-Hawk Battery Replacement?

I would remove all the Tamiya plugs and put the deans plugs in their place, which then means you need to switch the connector on all of your ESC's as well. The ESC should have male plugs on both sides, and your battery and motor should have female plugs. That is the best way to do it. If you don't want to deal with all of the hassel, you can use or make an adapter for the new charger (if it is Tamiya plug) to work with the Deans plug on the new battery. And leave the Tamiya plugs on everything else. You will then also have to use that adapter when that battery is connected to whichever planes ESC, since your ESC is Tamiya. Deans is just cleaner, and no adapter to possibly loose any juice. Just a better overall setup with less connection problems than those Tamiya plugs.
