I am mounting servo's in the wing of my plane and need to run a 12" servo extension the only extensions i have are 32 AWG guage micro wires will these be ok to use with a futaba S3004 servo?
Thanks in advance for your help

Truthfully, I would spend the cash and get proper Servo extension cables. What you have may work, but do you really want to be up in the air when your servo leads disconnect because they were drawing to much current for the extension cables. At the most the cables would be $10. If you are determined to use the cables, hook them up and feel the cables while activating the servos under stress, if the cables show signs of getting warm - you are going to have to get new extension cables. If not, you are probably going to be fine with those cables.

Yea, 32 is pretty thin

I kinda thought it was a little thin so i cut the servo wires and soldered more servo wire to it and covered it with some shrink tubing

But the pins are still crimped to 32 awg wiring and therefore you have not fixed anything. Spend the money, OK? Now or when you replace the plane, your choice. [:'(]

Cheap does not cut it in model flying. I crashed a trainer because I was too cheap to buy new elastic bands. The older ones I used seem fine on the ground but when the stresses of flying got to them they snapped. 3 dollars cost me a plane!

No Bruce, Paul cut the SERVO wire, not the thin extension wire.

You should be ok there Paul

OK, I misread. Had I been right, the short length of 32 AWG wire would also have functioned much like a fuse link and just melted/burned.

Minnflyer is right i cut the servo wire and hunted for hours to see if i had any more servo wire. the last box i checked i found about 20' of hites servo wire it's amazing what you can find if you look hard enough

Another question what application would you use 32 gauge wire for??

Nothing. I guess you might power a LED(wingtip light?) or something extremely lightweight. No motors, perhaps a sensor of some sort although I can't think of what kind in our hobby. I wouldn't use it on anything that HAD to work.

The really light gear is used on micro flyers, really really small electrics flown indoors, where every fraction of a gram counts. Where the entire flight pack (including the wires) weighs less than a single 3004 servo.
