So what speedo does everyone else use? does everyone have the reciever up on the servo?
I use a KO VFS-2000 & a KO receiver, an yes I mount the receiver on top of the servo

I may just use plugs for a laugh now
Atleast most people in the UK are sensible enough to realise hard wiring cells is more trouble than it's worth

I use plugs on my motors when im racing stock, always hardwire with mods though.
Never noticed any drop in performance through plugs and have never had one come apart.......... you know what will happen tomorrow now
