| Having a bit of wireing trouble.... HELP?
Im having a problem figuring out all the electrical issues on my workhorse Cherohee rig? (see first album pic) Aside from the fact it has in it: OLD-SCHOOL Novak XRS ESC (8.4v max input/6v internal BEC) HS465mg servo Integy 35t motor/20t pinion on 87t spur Ram motor sound unit and custom blower box/dual 9v boxy batt feed and seperate servo actuated horn RC4WD winch and controler chip CC 10 AMP BEC running steering servo and winch via splitter cable Axial "simple lights" - 4 forward white, 2 rear red with controler board about 15 feet of splitters, extentions, custom cut connectors, and GOD KNOWS what else I forgot to mention! I just cant figure out how it all still seems to work together? ROTFLMAO!!! Sorry, but I just had to post what a mess things can get to be when you try to pack 10 pounds of crap in a 6.5 pound scaler rig..... I guess my biggest issue is I dont want to cut wires for a cleaner system, because I will get bored soon and need all this speghetti for another project soon enough. My buddy said I should show you electronics folks my mess because there might be an RCC worlds record for the worst RC wireing job ever. I think I got a shot at that trophy, what do you think? But Ill tell you what, damn thing works, and crawls like a spider too....... probably because its so damn wire-heavy LOL!!! PICS http://s1196.photobucket.com/albums/...nder/Cherokee/ |

Busy? yes. Messy? a little. But, the worst? Not even close! If everything's workin' you're doing something right (or very lucky).

Just coil all the small wire around a screwdriver handle (They will look like a telephone cord) and it will look 100 times better without shortening anything.

you think thats messy, my tamiya knight hauler with my custom light kit was worse than that till i got sick of it. there was over 20ft of servo sized wire ran through it to power a total of 28 leds (22 truck, 6 trailer) and 6 servos (steering, shift, 5th wheel lock, hi/lo beams, lights on/off, turn sig) , 6ch rx, switches (hi/lo, on/off, turn sig), a mmp, and connectors to send power to trailer for unhooking.
