Default RE: CARF-Models 2013 Series 3.1m Extra 330SC

Before I mounted the inboard aileron servo I had to create the extension for it. I had decided to take on the challenge of creating my own custom length extensions for this plane. No extra weight for multiple extensions that are up to 6" too long. I'd get the minimum length required and the minimum weight being added for all the extensions. Plus it seemed to be more affordable to make your own. A win, win, win situation.
I purchased the AirWild Hobbies Servo Extension DIY kit and the Wild gauge that is a tachometer, voltmeter, and measures continuity. They warn you that there is a learning curve. It was NOT fun making the connectors for these extensions.

I got them completed on the servo end and used heat shrink tubing on the connection since it will be concealed inside the wing.
