Overview
The LOGIC Futaba Y Lead (Silicone) 150mm is a compact servo splitter cable designed for RC enthusiasts who need to connect two servos or auxiliary devices to a single receiver channel. Whether you're building a custom RC car, boat, aircraft or helicopter setup in the UK, this Y-lead offers the flexibility and reliability required for professional-grade installations. The silicone-insulated wiring provides excellent durability and flexibility compared to standard plastic-insulated alternatives, making it ideal for routing through tight spaces within your model's fuselage, hull, or radio box without the risk of cable cracking or insulation damage over time.
This Y lead features authentic Futaba-style connectors, ensuring seamless compatibility with Futaba receivers and servos commonly used across RC cars, boats, and aircraft. The 150mm length is specifically engineered for short cable runs where minimal excess wiring is preferred, helping you maintain a clean, professional installation whilst avoiding unnecessary weight and bulk. Whether you're a weekend basher upgrading your RC car UK setup or a serious hobbyist fine-tuning an aircraft or helicopter, this compact Y-lead is an essential component for any well-organised RC model shop toolkit.
Key Features
- Silicone-Insulated Wiring — The use of premium silicone insulation rather than standard plastic provides superior flexibility, durability and resistance to cracking, ensuring your Y-lead remains functional through countless hours of RC use and extreme bending in confined spaces.
- Futaba-Type Connectors — These connectors are fully compatible with Futaba receivers and servos, which are widely recognised across the RC hobby community and are standard equipment on many RC cars, boats and aircraft models available in the UK market.
- Compact 150mm Length — This short cable length is ideal for internal routing within receiver boxes, aircraft fuselages, boat hulls and tight model spaces, minimising excess wiring whilst maintaining reliable signal transmission between your receiver and servos.
- Professional Y-Lead Configuration — The Y-lead design allows you to split one receiver channel to control two servos or auxiliary devices simultaneously, providing greater flexibility in model configuration without requiring additional receiver channels.
- Reliable Signal Transmission — The quality construction ensures stable, interference-free communication between your receiver and connected servos, critical for responsive control in RC cars, boats and aircraft.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a Y-lead and what is it used for in RC models? — A Y-lead is a cable splitter that allows you to connect two servos or auxiliary devices to a single receiver channel. This is commonly used in RC cars for differential lock systems, RC aircraft for wing flap control, and RC boats for dual rudder setups. The LOGIC Futaba Y Lead enables this configuration with reliable Futaba connectors.
- Is the 150mm length suitable for my RC setup? — The 150mm length is ideal for short cable runs within confined spaces such as receiver boxes, aircraft fuselages, and boat hulls. If you need a longer Y-lead, LOGIC also manufacture a 300mm Futaba Y-Lead (Silicone) model. Measure your intended cable run to ensure this length suits your installation.
- What is the difference between silicone-insulated and standard plastic Y-leads? — Silicone insulation offers superior flexibility, durability and resistance to cracking compared to standard plastic. This makes the silicone version more reliable in tight installations where the cable may be bent repeatedly, and it maintains its flexibility even in extreme temperatures, making it the preferred choice for serious RC enthusiasts.
- Is this compatible with my Futaba receiver? — Yes, the LOGIC Futaba Y Lead features authentic Futaba-style connectors, ensuring full compatibility with Futaba receivers and servos. If your RC model uses Futaba-type connectors (standard across many RC cars, boats and aircraft), this Y-lead will connect securely.
- Can I use this Y-lead with non-Futaba brands? — The LOGIC Futaba Y Lead features Futaba-type connectors specifically. If your receiver uses Spektrum/JR-type connectors instead, you would need the equivalent JR Y-Lead model. Always verify your receiver connector type before purchasing.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — Yes, this Y-lead is suitable for RC enthusiasts at all levels. Installation is straightforward — simply connect the main connector to your receiver channel and attach your two servos to the dual connectors. No special tools or soldering is required, making it accessible for beginners whilst providing professional-grade reliability for experienced modellers.
