Cleaner, easier wiring tricks and tips!

[CM9000]

so here I am at work I have stumbled upon some zip tie mounts.

just like any of these you see here in this link

4-WAY CABLE TIE MOUNTING BASES - .75" X .75" | eBay

im going to start using these on flat surfaces. ie. bodies for light wires, chassis for servo/ esc leads.

another one I found is for mounting zip ties on tubing using zip ties. so these could be even used on motors or your cages.

feel free to post up pictures of your finished wiring or videos/ pics of your tricks to clean wiring.

Nice find! That would be nice for keeping LEDs clean on the bodies.

I also use that plastic wire loom cover stuff shoe goo'ed to my chassis to keep stuff from rattling around. but these zip tie holders would look much better. no shoe goo needed.

I like clean/stealth wire jobs.

I got some of these from the local Home Depot. Had the same idea but I found the double sided tape or whatever it is they use to stick them down didn't seem to hold for very long so gave up on that idea. However, thinkin' about it right now, maybe stripping the stuff they use off and then putting my own double sided tape on might solve that problem. hmmmmmm . . . . . . . .

Servo connectors and crimping tool. Shorten the ESC and servo wires.

I can find connectors. Where do you get crimpers that small?

I can find connectors. Where do you get crimpers that small?

Example:

Gear Head RC Crimping Tool

Gear Head RC Ratcheting Crimping Tool

But you can find them everywhere online.

Thanks a lot 84yoda. I wouldn't have known what to call them. All the crimpers I have googled were way bigger. Will def be ordering a set.
