Im new to this hobby, atleast in a serious manner, and literally no where i have looked to solve my issue, reccomended this. Makes total sense. Doing it now. Thank you. Keep losing signal on my flysky ct6b at like 60 feet. Driving me crazy
Have you taken the back off the transmitter lately? If so, make sure you didn't accidentally unplug or wiggle antenna wire loose from its connection point.
Have you considered some sort of cable reinforcement at each end (one at the connector end and one at the servo end)? This might help support the cables as it enters the conncetor and enter the servo. As far as creating the reinforcement, a couple narrow strips of 1/16" or 3/32" hard wood (about the width of a narrow zip tie and as long as the thickness of the connector) placed on the top and on the bottom of the flat cable and then wrapped with the zip tie (creating something looking like a wrapped sandwich).
Sounds interesting but I'm having a hard time visualizating what your describing. If supporting the connector and servo ends is what you want to do, maybe try some 3m epoxy to stiffen the area around the plug and servo.
Elevator servo inside the tail long leads of a fiberglass fuselage Next to the antenna on 72 MHz and it went right into the ground after 3 or 4 days.....
From my experience, all that handling and manipulation of the wires could result in breakage, stressed connections, etc. I would go with a ferrite filter.
Just one twist on the wires won't work harden them too much. It needs repeated bending back and forth. I've been doing it for years and never had a wire break. I have expierienced weakening of the plug female pins. The spring tab inside gets bent up and the gold coating wears off after a couple of disconnect and reconnect cycles. That's why I try not to unplug the wires too much if I can avoid it. I do periodically check my plugs and bend the tabs out as needed to ensure a good contact. I also agree on the ferrite bead. Good feedback, thanks for the input.
I put the plane on the ground and pulled out the antenna of the wreckage And put it on top of the tail and sure enough the interference went away.... Then I put it back inside the fuselage on the ground and sure enough the elevator was going crazy
... I can't get it to work on my particular fuselage no range check put it in a foamy and it crashed I can't get this to work with this Adirondack extension All the way down the fuselage
I just prefer red white black wires. Why does everyone use red orange brown👎 This did work in a boat i had using a mechanical speed control and AM radio.
It's just a preference. I like the orange and black. Futaba uses the red, black, and white usually. Glad to hear that this technique helped in another real world situation. It's helped me a lot. Thanx for the input...
I prefer modern connections. Too many bad connector sets ,bad wires being sold. It’s more work, but that is the price for this technology not improving over the decades.

Keep in mind that this usually helps minor glitching and minor signal issues. If you are having full blown brown outs you probably have another issue.
Nice technique. Thank you for the video.
Great info buddy

Perfect!
awesome🔥

one thing is possible the servo shaking ( digital ) to reduce put rond filter ( ferrite core ) help
Yes that would definitely help

It's a fact that antennas don't play well with fiberglass and carbon fiber.

Some wires with silicone jackets need more work and heat to get them to stay twisted.
What about the esc wires ? Would twisting those make any difference ?
Most ESC wires have a ferrite bead already. But, if they don't, it wouldn't hurt.

What do Americans talk so terrible?
