Fisher Price Motors
We are using the Fisher Price Motors on our robot. I noticed that they are requiring us to use 10 gauge wire on these motors. The male connectors on the motors are a .187 male connector. Where can we find female connectors this small in order for the 10 gauge wire to fit? If no, what are you using to connect the motors to the controller?

We use an uninsulated flag terminal (i.e. right angle) and open it a little with a pair of needle nose pliers. Insert the wire and crimp tight. We solder the wire to the terminal and then solder the terminal to the motor terminal. Strain relief can not be overly done on these motors. Of course, heat shrink over the connection is always implied.
