Overview
The LOGIC Futaba Extension Lead (HD) 1000mm is an essential component for RC enthusiasts who need extended reach between their receiver and servo connections. Whether you're building a custom RC car UK setup, configuring a complex aircraft radio system, or extending servo runs on larger scale models, this heavy-duty extension lead provides the reliable connectivity you need. At 1000mm in length, it offers significantly greater reach than standard short leads, making it ideal for applications where servos are mounted at a distance from the receiver or where additional cable management flexibility is required.
This extension lead is specifically designed for Futaba-type plugs, which are among the most widely used connector standards in the RC hobby. The 1000mm length makes it perfect for larger RC models, scale aircraft, and complex multi-servo setups where standard shorter leads simply won't reach. Built with the same quality standards as Logic RC's entire range of receiver leads and connectors, this product represents a genuine solution to real-world RC servo placement challenges that modellers and builders face regularly.
RC Model Shop stocks this lead because we understand that successful RC projects often require flexible solutions. Whether you're a dedicated RC car enthusiast working on a bespoke build, an aircraft modeller configuring a new airframe, or someone involved in ready to run RC assembly and modification, having the right length extension lead makes the difference between a clean installation and frustrating workarounds.
Key Features
- 1000mm Extended Length — This substantial 1000mm cable length provides significantly greater reach than shorter extension leads, allowing you to position servos away from your receiver without constraint and giving you maximum flexibility in your RC model design and construction.
- Heavy-Duty Construction — Built with robust materials and reinforced mouldings, this lead is engineered to withstand the rigours of RC use, including vibration, flexing, and the stresses of regular operation in both indoor and outdoor environments.
- Gold-Plated Connections — The connectors feature gold plating which provides superior conductivity and corrosion resistance compared to standard connections, ensuring reliable signal transmission and power delivery with minimal voltage drop over the extended cable length.
- High-Quality Mouldings and Wire — Every component of this extension lead is manufactured to exacting standards, from the precision-moulded connector housings to the quality internal wiring, ensuring durability and consistent performance throughout the product's service life.
- Futaba-Type Plug Compatibility — Designed for direct compatibility with all Futaba-type servo plugs and receiver outputs, this lead integrates seamlessly into existing Futaba receiver systems and works with any servo using the standard Futaba connector format.
Technical Performance
The LOGIC Futaba Extension Lead (HD) 1000mm represents a purposefully engineered solution for extending servo connectivity in RC systems. The heavy-duty construction means this lead can handle the electrical demands of modern servo systems, whether you're running standard analogue servos, digital servos, or even high-voltage HV servos that require precise signal transmission. The gold-plated connections are not merely cosmetic—they provide genuine electrical benefits by reducing contact resistance and preventing oxidation that can occur with standard plated connectors over time. The high-quality mouldings ensure that the connector housings remain securely seated in your receiver and servo leads, preventing the loose connections that can cause intermittent signal loss or servo glitching. The internal wire gauge has been carefully selected to handle the current requirements of servo circuits while maintaining flexibility for routing through model structures. At 1000mm, this lead is suitable for even the largest RC aircraft, complex multi-servo wing harness setups, and large-scale RC vehicles where servo placement may be several feet from the receiver. The engineering quality ensures consistent performance whether used in temperate UK conditions or in varying environmental circumstances, and the robust construction means you won't experience signal degradation even when the lead is flexed during model operation or storage.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the 1000mm Futaba extension lead suitable for beginners? — Absolutely. This is a straightforward component with no complex installation required. Simply plug one end into your receiver's servo channel and the other into your servo, and you're ready to go. Beginners will appreciate the simplicity, whilst experienced modellers will value the quality construction and extended length for complex builds.
- What length Futaba extension leads does RC Model Shop stock? — We stock a comprehensive range of LOGIC Futaba extension leads in various lengths including 100mm, 200mm, 300mm, 500mm, 600mm, 750mm, and 1000mm options, allowing you to select exactly the right length for your specific application. The 1000mm length is our longest heavy-duty option.
- Will the gold-plated connections make a real difference to my setup? — Yes, gold plating provides genuine benefits for your RC system. Gold doesn't corrode like standard brass or nickel plating, so your connections will remain reliable even after extended use, storage, or exposure to varying humidity levels. This means more consistent servo performance and fewer troubleshooting issues caused by poor connections.
- Can I use this extension lead with any Futaba radio system? — This lead is compatible with any Futaba-type receiver and works with any servo that features a standard Futaba connector. Futaba connectors are the industry standard for many RC systems, making this lead highly versatile across different radios and servo brands.
- What makes the heavy-duty version different from standard leads? — Heavy-duty leads feature improved wire gauge, superior connector mouldings, and better overall construction quality compared to economy alternatives. They're engineered to handle more demanding applications and provide more reliable long-term performance, particularly important for expensive servo systems or competition-grade RC setups.
- Is this lead suitable for high-voltage servo systems? — Yes. Modern HV servos operate at higher voltage levels and can draw significant current during operation. The heavy-duty construction and gold-plated connections of this lead ensure it can handle the electrical demands of high-voltage servo systems safely and reliably.
