well the shortest is 10cm... so I can see why he wants it short. On my 415 I only need 4.5

thats twice the cable to stuff somewhere and twice the chance something can go wrong :)

..
 
And othet reason have no access to shorter ones as local hobby shop does not stock brushless gear .....and 10cm too long..

I wouldn't do it. This is straight from Novak Customer Service:


The sensor wires are pretty tough to shorten. The wire used is teflon stuff and it's a pain to solder with. I've seen most "shortening" jobs come in for replacement.

Huh? I shortened mine many months ago with zippo problems and it was easy. Cut, strip, resolder and re-shrink wrap.
