Another thing I noticed during my build of the servos, is that the rear cyclic servo, elevator I think, has a very short wire. Haven't mounted all my electronics yet, but it seems that this won't reach my Rx. :confused:

Do you guys just put some sort of extension on this or what ??...any links at hand ?

Thanks again, this forum has helped me in sooo many ways building this thing...which is a total blast btw !!! :banana I catch myself skipping out of work early just so I can get home and work on this thing.. :oops:

I have a 6" extension secured with heat shrink tubing to keep it from pulling loose and to keep fuel out. I actually used three pieces of tubing: one smaller diameter piece on each connector to cover up the joints where the wires enter the connectors and one larger diameter piece over the whole thing after I plugged the connectors together.

So was this extension a home made thing, or was it something you got from your LHS ??

Is this what I'm looking for ? http://www.deeteeenterprises.com/NS.SerovWire.Ext.php 22 awg ?
