Re: [RCSE] Hitec Digi Servo burn out! Again...

[Albert E. Wedworth]

Hi Ben   I get my twisted wire 22 AWG from George Joy @ Peak Electronics. I use multiplex connectors. I use Unassembled Gold plated connectors from Custom Electronics.  Jo Joy  George's wife @ Peak Electronics. I cut off the factory plugs from the servos and solder direct to the harness.  I never use a on /off switch.   But if I do use a switch.  I buy a Switch Jack from Dieter @ Shredair.  I never had one of those fail ! So as you can see I build m own wiring harness. I never had a problem with the wiring harness I build in any of my planes.  I just can't seem to spend money on something I can make.. I don't think it's the wiring harness.  I think it's the servos them self. This is the first plane I ever used Digi servo in because I never thought I needed them.. But I figured Hay, "what the heck" I got this 5 meter Ship I should use good stuff in it. I have always used Volz servos in the past but with the difference between the dollar /euro there out of my price range now... I hate to say it But.......I think Gordy is RIGHT when he tells us they use cheep brushes in our servo motors!      I have never had such problems with any Non Digi servo out there .
