<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Thanks Matt and Jim, I was low on 22 gauge and a friend
had a whole roll of the 26 gauge, It is high quality plated wire but I will go
ahead and order some 24 and 22 gauge and not take the chance. I get
impatient towards the end of a project plus I have stayed up till 2am the
past three nights getting it through the final assem. stages. Oh well it's
going to be cold as a witches you know what sunday. Matt e-mail me if your going
to the feild sunday, I don't want to freeze all by myself. Maybe if I get a
chance I will run some loads on this size wire and see what kind of current it
can deliver and what the voltage drops would be on different lengths of wire.
Has anyone tried to see what a fully stalled digi servo pulls, just
curious. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV>When there is this choice use the larger size, especially if the runs are
long. I don't know the specifics you ask, but I think 26 ga. is too small for
your application.</DIV>

<P><FONT class=nf face=Verdana size=2>Just wanted to get some opinions on
wire size for making up servo extensions. I have always used 22 gauge wire
for my extensions but a friend of mine has a roll of 26 gauge sixteen strand
three conductor twisted wire in jr colors. These will be running Hitec
digitals in a 29% 540, only one servo per extension will be used. I guess my
question is how much current can this wire handle without any significant
voltage drop, and what amount of current does one servo draw fully stalled.
Thanks for replies in advance. Brian
