You don't "have" to solder the motor wires on to the motors.
Using the connector makes it extremely easy to replace motors this way.
The FTC kit may have included these connection devices, but the Tetrix jumble that came from first choice did not. They can be ordered from pitsco. So, if you're ordering anyway, you would do better to get the connector that has thermal overload protection built into it. Not sure about how firmly that connection device fits onto the back of the motor either.
