Default Y oh Y ? Connector query

Does anyone make a single strip junction port where you can plug all your JST from the ESC in one place? I have two or three Y connectors jumpered together and I hate the rats nest it makes.

If you know how to solder it woulden't be that hard to make, just glue a bunch together, and solder the wires like a rail, brush some liquid electrical tape over the solder joints. oh nevermind, the plugs are backwards to do that :/

I like to use the spiral cable wrap to use on my wires, I get the 1/4" wrap and it works great to cover the rats nest.

If you're not handling it yourself, ask Heyok I bet he can make you something.

I thought HeyOk had something. Otherwise you can just take a JST cable and solder it to a raw 2p header that has 0.1"/2.54mm spacing. Just understand 5A is the most you'll get out of this small stuff. Next step would be 2mm bullets or deans micro.

HeyOK has this power distributor for $5 but I am unsure if it is JST compatible.

On my rigs the power comes from the female plug, so these pins are the wrong side of the plug.
This is how my Light controller, holmes servos and 3BRC servos came.
If you Resoldered all the ends to be the opposite direction, you could just glue the male sides together and shorten the wires to 1mm, strip the insulation and solder on a rail like I suggested earlier.

If I made something like this, would it be useful for you?

Use your imagination a little to create a gap between each connector so that this could actually work

Four or five outlets would be ideal and keep the wire as short as possible. When you start plugging all these different accessories together the overall length rapidly becomes a mess.

Exactly the number I was going to suggest

Some with just 2 or 3 outlets would be good. I only power a servo and BEC on my trucks.
