Servo extensions

[MicroMan]

I think I may need to extend the wiring of my tail servo to the Rx. I wanted to know will I experience any unwanted glitches using a extension. This will be from the Tail servo to the Rx in the front of the heli.

The answer is dependant on many factors. But in general, observer the following and you will likely be ok:

1. Keep the servo wiring as spaced away from any power drive and feed wiring as practical.

2. Keep your servo wires as short as you can while observing #1.

3. Be sure your BEC is adequate for the current you will likely draw in servo loading/stall conditions.

4. Be neat and Ny-Tie all you wiring down. Vibration is not your friend.

The tail servo wire should connect to the gyro and not directly to the receiver.
