  • Cheapest place to buy a servo extention cable?

    OK so it looks like I'm going to need one more servo extention cable to go between my ESC and the RX in my 600esp. Annoyingly I didn't buy a spare one when I got some at Zone.

    Not sure how long I need it yet, will work that out tonight but does anyone know where I'd be best getting one from? I could go to Robot Birds where I got the others but it's an 80p purchase with a £5 delivery charge

      Pete, I always use Giantcod for all those little things! They're really good and very helpful....

          Cheers,

            I bought some from giant cod and the quality was shocking. Stupidly thin, and poorly crimped connectors. I recently got a couple from Elite, silicon wires so nice and flexible and won't fatigue. They also got them in tons of different lengths give them a call

              Surely being in reading you must have a local Model shop close by . Like you say no point paying £5 postage for something that costs less than a pound . Plus our local modelshops need all the help they can get from us now . Rob

                Pete,

                Tell me the length you want and I will make you one, or stick one in the post. When a local model shop shut down, I bought a load of them (seem to use them all the time in my planks with servos all over the place).
                Cheers,
                Simon

                    Pete, invest in some plugs, pins, wire and a crimper. Might aswell get the now you'll need them in the future. I've never bought an extension just make what I need and shorten the ones that need it.
