[RCSE] 4 pin connectors

2008-02-03 Thread ivanbrian
I'm assembling a model with a 2 piece wing that bolts onto an AVA fuse. Does 
anyone have any advise on some thing better than the 4 pin deans connectors 
I normally use? After a month or so I end up breaking the wires on them and 
they are getting harder and harder for my old arthritic fingers to use. 
Thanks Brian Smith

You could try the multipex 6 pin connector.  Its a bit bigger, and easier to
work with.

Another option is to use the 15 pin connectors for PC serial plugs. 
Several of the moldie manufacturers use them.

Graupner / Multiplex 6-pin is nice.  A little easier to assemble / 
disassemble than the Deans.


Also, you need proper strain releif.  After soldering, heat stringing, 
either cover the whole thing with one big piece of heat shrink for the 
Deans, I think about 1/2 tube fits over it.  Or you can use some hot 
glue to build up the strain releif area plus give you a little more to 
grab on other than wires.

I know there are some black 4 pin connectors out there, yes with pins much 
larger than Deans...Had some grey ones from Shredair, no longer in stock. 
Multiplex are ok, but on the small side.
Anyone know where to get such an animal?
