OK... Here's what I want to do.

I installed a servo in each wing to control the ailerons. I need to get wires to them. I put feed tubes in the wing ribs, so I can feed an extension to the servos.

I'm puzzling over "best practices" for using servo extensions, y-cables, and the like.

Here's my questions:

1. What do y'all do with the wires in the servo bay? I mean, you've got the extension sticking in there, and then the several inches if wire coming out of the servo. Do you just tie the wire up?

2. I was thinking of pushing an extension cable through, connecting the servo, and pulling it back out a ways (pulling the joint into the tube somewhat) taking out the slack. I was hoping to get by with shorter extensions that way. Is this recommended or not?

3. Where servo extension wires join? Do you any special method or hardware to prevent the connections from coming undone? If so, examples/links please.


Any tips, trips, would be appreciated.
