These are perfect for adapting VEX robotics sensors and motors to non-VEX controllers.<p>Regarding wire thickness, I'm happy with the heavier wire, since it can pass decent current and is mechanically stronger than tiny wires - though the description should say what the wire gauge is. I agree they might be a bit heavy for RC applications where every gram matters.</p></p>
Customer #584545 on ROB-08738 - Servo Extension Cable - Female to Female (Shrouded)Customer #584545urn:uuid:79ddc52d-0e4b-2d36-a5dd-6eeb8a153e8c2014-08-12T12:59:05-06:00<p>We use these for our RC receiver to servo extensions. The end with the shroud is the male end. This end has the servo wire plugged into it to lengthen it.
The other smaller/unshrouded end (female) plugs into the receiver which has male pins.
So rename this to
Servo Extension Cable - Female to Male (shrouded)</p>

The shroud physically holds the servo header and jumper header together but there are no pins with it to make the electrical connection. I'm annoyed at myself for buying this considering the picture above.</p>
