Servo leads: how long is too long?
I'm building an enormous SPAD - type plane. A high wing with an 8 foot wingspan. Buried in the wings will be 4 standard servos; 2 for flap, 2 for 'rons. The flap servos only need a 12" extension, but my 'ron servos will need about 32", plus another short extension plugged into the reciever. Is that too much? Do I need a heavy guage wire, noise filter, etc? Thank you for your time.

Not a problem, just be sure to use 22 gauge wire. You may want to splice and solder the extensions in the wing and do away with the connectors.
