Where to get servo type cable ?


Hi All

In the process of completing an ASW 28 - as usual I need to get some servo extensions. I would like to source a roll of servo type cable and redo the originals to the corrcet length - anyone know a suppier in the UK of such wire?

Thanks

Get some computer ribbon cable. Buy longer than you need, then strip to three wire pieces. Jot down your color sequence and go.

top quality cable, plugs, switches all at really keen prices.

Stinkyfive: Would you know if the JR servo plugs from ashtek actually fit the recievers propperly? I always have problims finding new servo plugs male that fit the JR recievers properly! Any news.

Yup


They sure do, I am Graupner/ JR now - used to be Futaba and the Ashtek stuff is fine - in fact it makes me wonder why I used Futaba plugs at all, the number of plugs I've had to shave to get to fit Schulze/ JR receivers....

Ashtek is an excellent company, very prompt and business like too with very realistic postage rates.

PS. No I'm not on commission - just a happy customer.
