Servo Ext

[accaptain]

Just a quick question about servo ext. I noticed it takes two 48" ext for the elevator servos. I can find like 36" ext but no twisted 48" 'ers. How many ext can you join together before you notice a voltage problem? Like if I join two 24" ext together to make the 48" I need, any problems doing this? Before this bird I had a 50cc which didn't require but like 24" ext so not hard to find that length.

I know I can make my own but I don't trust myself to make them. I'll do anything but make my own radio gear!!

Thanks,
Accaptain

Here is a good thread on Servo extensions. It includes a build thread on extensions. Also you can call www.radicalrc.com and they will make custom lengths.

I second Radical R/C. They make great extensions and they are 20G. Check them out.

Accaptain,

I used a 36" and a 12" extension. I am using all Li-ion and the voltage drop is not something that I notice in flight but that's just me. I think all above comments can get you to a one piece 48", this way you don't need to worry about having an extra safety connector in between the extensions either.

Hey Wizard,

Saw the link to radical r/c but didn't see the link to the servo extension build thread??

I was the one who did the build thread. Here is the link..............

Hope it helps ya out!!! Extensions are VERY easy to build!!!! Just practice on 1 or 2 before you build one for good!!! It took me about a week to get really good at building extensions.
