I converted all mine to Deans too. The Gen Aces came with banana type plugs that I could not find mates for anywhere, and also noticed that they can be plugged in backwards, not good.  For the ESC's I made a Deans to EC3 harness's so I didn't need to worry about soldering in the planes since they are both RTF and already mounted.  That also gave me a bit more wiggle room for plugging the packs in.
