Source for servo connectors
 
I am looking for a source for Futaba style servo connectors so I can make custom servo leads and avoid the extra connector when using an extension. Dymond RC was a source at one time but they seem to have dropped off the surface of the earth.

That crimper tool from MPI is a must-have, and their prices are really good, too.

Tower also has them as I just bought some from them about 2 months ago.

A,

These folks are easy to do business with. Fast and reliable in my experience. Nice gear, also:

If you are just extending the lead length on a servo, why use another connector? Just cut the existing cable in two and splice in the necessary extension length. No new connectors are then required.

Maybe I'm fussy. I have been in the electronics business all my working life and splicing wirwes was never an "elegant" fix to short wires.

Thank you all for the pointers to the various vendors. I shall chose one and place an order.
