Dear all, does anyone know of anywhere in the Uk I can get 0.1" pinstrip in rows of 3 for my rx projects, can only get single and double.

thanks

Just make them up out of a row of double and a row of single, or break off a length of three pins from a single for each servo connector.

The normal places to look are RS, Maplin, Rapid Components and Anglia Components. All have on line ordering, just google or yahoo for the URLs :)

I have been doing single pieces of three rows, just hard to get square, time consuming. 3 rows moulded would also be stronger. Thanks for the reply.

I doubt if you will find a block of three in a row... I've just taken apart a GWS rx and they use three pins off a single strip for each channel, and they are spaced apart slightly (possibly due to the shrouding)...

Thanks for that matey. It does exist, we had loads off it gold plate but right angle in work a year ago or so. I think It all got scrapped, DOH!!!!

Thanks again
