Savox 1251 Low Profile Servo Lead
 

These come with a VERY long lead. Must be a foot long!

I have an unsightly mass of wire because my rx is only about an inch from the servo:thumbdown:

Servo leads that I have shortened in the past I have done inside the case - it doesn't appear so easy on this Savox because of the way the lead is mounted through the PCB...

Is it commonly done or do people shorten externally with these?

Replace at the connector.

You'll need a crimping tool to do a neat job, that's what I do with all my servos.

Here's a guide on how to do it!
