Or you can cut the wire to the length you want and redo the connector -

Open up the servo and solder a shorter lead to the board. You definitely want to have a small tip and a hot iron though.

Thanks, have to practice first on a broken servo before I do
it on my digital servo. |
try this.. take a screw driver as long as the wire and start at the end closest to the servo. wrap the wire tighly around the screw driver giving the wire a sprial shape when removing it do not untwist just plug right in. this will shorten the wire length and make wires 10x neater

Apply a LITTLE heat from a heat gun to the wires before you take them off the screwdriver will help "set" the coil.
