I have been using stock flat servo wires with multiple runs of up to 7 feet each without incident or problems. No twists, no chokes, no ferrite beads. I have done this with both 4 and 5 cell battery packs (NiMH & NiCad) and servos (digital and analog) from JR (241 up to 8411), Futaba, Volz, and Multiplex. Receivers have been both normal FM and PCM (JR and Futaba). I have done this on both gliders (large scale planes and carbon/kevlar/glass TD ships) and on gas powered (as in large scale gasoline powered 100cc twin cylinder engine) planes. But as Bill said, twisting will not do any harm. I just have never seen the need to do it. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bill Malvey RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
