I think most people do it themselves? get some crimping tools for servo wires. Or find someone friendly at the track that could maybe do it

The crimping tool and the crimps are not too expensive. Get one and be the guy that does it at your track

I got the stuff and do it at my club.

this is the tool i use and it gives a perfect crimp every time, even lads with crimpers they have got from ebay end up using mine as theirs tend to bend the pins while crimping them but mine dont....

this is the ones i use and where i got them from

Do you have a link for the pins as well?



I fancy having a go at this as most of my rc cars could do with a good tidy up with the servo leads.
