Don't make the mistake of using parts from RadioShack - they are poor quality and WILL fail.

Use the parts that Mark has linked to above. Mouser is a great vendor with lot's of cool stuff.

I have an extra heavy duty switch jack as sold by Canuck Engineering or you could try http://www.northcountyflyingmachines.com/blackjack.htm I believe the same as sold by Mouser.

Thanks. That's really helpful. I've been using Radio Hack and haven't been too happy.

Yep. That's where I got my RTF switchjacks. I make my own now. Nobody to blame but myself if it fails but it's been a long time since I've heard of a problem with the Mouser/Digikey parts.

glassmonkey: You're lucky to not have had trouble with the RS ones...or did you?

The links are for mini switch jacks. They are very nice, but very small. Do you think they would work for a hotliner with 3 mini digital servos. Power would be supplied by a 2 cell 750 mah Lipo with a 3 amp ubec.
Thanks

Yes they should work just fine. I use them in mine
