I recommend anyone who plans to have lots of flights with their Aerobird consider making this change.
I haven't had major problems so far with connectors, only a couple of minor ones twice. But I've been considering putting on different connectors like you have, but I've been too lazy so far

Someday I plan on getting around to it.
