Except no one would ever just use a connector for the motor connections for a quadcopter. There is too much current combined with the vibration at the motor. Maybe connectors on the end of the cable for the board, away from the motors, which they do do. It's common for these toy quadcopters to provide spare motors with the cable pre soldered to a wire with a connector that you have to thread through the arm.

Jason Gurtz-Cayla my 30$ drone had connectors. Trust me it’s not that great. After 1 hard Landing (Stuck in a tree and fell 6 meter) the connectors broke and there was no way to connect them without replacing the wires with new ones. So soldering is stronger and will last longer as these drones will last up to 7 years

Something I dont think was mentioned. The Motor // Arm soldering points are actually spaced pretty far apart, making it easy for even a novice at soldering to be able to do it easily. Most DIY focused FPV drone electronics arent done in such a way. You are lucky to get a mm or two between pads, here we see like 1/4 inch. Dont like that they didnt put a plug for the arm motor combo, but I get that it adds weight and they wanted to save every 0.1 gram here.

Interesting comment at the end 'it's not a drone it's a quadcopter' . . . I would posit that it's both. I suppose it depends upon how you define what is a drone, because drone aircraft come in different forms. I think in the most basic sense a drone must have the capacity not only to operate but to also function without external input. As an example a well tuned and balanced quad can remain stationary in flight with no stick input, but that's all it can do with no stick input. A drone on the other hand can take off, fly a course by waypoints , return home and land all without the need of any stick input. The Mavic Air 2 is a drone in quadcopter form. It can be flown as a drone, or as a quadcopter - albeit with permanent stability & stuck horizon mode. Nice break down vid

I tried to use this process on my DJI air 2s to remove the gimbal from the body. The gimbal data cable came out easily from the mother board just as seen in the video, but the video cable does not. seem like the plug and socket of the video cable are different. At least in my drone there was no space to place the pry tool under to release the cable. Please be very careful when trying to get the video cable disconnected, you may end up spoiling the socket on the motherboard. Just a heads up from my experience.
