Default RE: JR Radio, non JR (Futaba) Connectors

Thanks - As long as I have a mix of Futaba and JR equipment, I tend to buy mostly Servos and Cables that have JR connectors as they can be used in both systems. Hitec servos now come with a Generic connector that will work with both JR and Futaba. It depends upon the situation whether or not I trim the tab or use an adapter.

I have several Spektrum 6100 receivers that accept both JR and Futaba leads.

I have found that when I use Third Party extensions with Spektrum Receivers, it is very difficult to plug in the extention to the receiver as the ports have tight tolerances. JR brand extensions seem to fit in easier.
