Default Black servo wires

Ive search the forum and found that a place called Roboshop sells the Hitec plug with black wire but they are out of stock and the shipping costs were far to high.

Ive search the net under :

Black ribbon cable
Black servo cable
22 awg cable
multi cable

All with no joy, if any one knows of any could they let me know. Just the cable will do it doesnt need the servo plug on the end.

Cheers Mikkel

I can vouch for all the TQ stuff. Ralph has an awesome product line and its the only wire I run.

I wonder where you heard that!

To the O.P., get the TQ servo wires, motor and sensor wires. Guaranteed 4 10th's off your lap times.

Try opening the page through IE or Firefox

Tried opening the link on another machine and its worked fine so i'll be ordering some, while im looking at it i was thinking of ordering some motor/battery cable as the shipping cost more than the cable.

So i was wondering what makes the 13awg TQ cable better than the 12awg wet noddle cable im running at the moment?

Well for one thing TQ wire is copper unlike most wire. And then the 13 gauge wire is supposed to handle what 12 can, but its the size of 14. The wire is also suuuuper flexible. I've been using TQ wire for a while now its its hands down the best IMO

Wet noddle is copper wire with 1660 strands a little more than the TQ 13awg. It will be a little thicker though. Have to weigh up if its worth changing.
