Need a source of really small multi-pin connectors.

Mostly dealing with electronics and pcbs and modifying them, all the things that make electrical-engineers tick and the rest of us cringe in fear.

First, I'd just like to mention that I am about as cheap as it gets.

Anyway, I just snagged myself a MR01 board off of RCmart. However, in addition to my 1:60 car project, I also hope to slap together a ZZMT for crawling. Of course, that would require another 20$ for a PCB, and two weeks for it to get here.

Who wants to blow 20$ and waste two weeks?

Anyway, I've decided that I may as well just wire the thing up to removable connectors; likely a larger pair (such as Deans Micro Connectors) for the batteries and motors, and a smaller set for the pot and steering servo motor.
Of course, this leaves me with a question:
Where the heck can I find something like this?
Lithiums are great!
Triple the speed...
four times the duration....
And they explode if you crash them too hard!

Try the flexible circuit boards found in floppy drives. They're the "tape" things that go to the upper head. It comes with sockets as well so if you have the desoldering skillz, snag them sockets too!
Whack!
