Overview
The Radient JR Twisted HD Extension Lead with Clip 900mm (RDNAC010228) is an essential accessory for RC enthusiasts in the UK who demand reliable, high-quality connections for their radio control equipment. Whether you're a seasoned RC car UK competitor or a weekend hobbyist, this male-to-female JR extension lead is engineered to deliver secure, low-loss signal transmission that keeps your RC model performing at its best. The 900mm length provides excellent flexibility for routing connections through your RC car, truck, or aircraft without compromising on signal integrity or introducing unwanted interference.
Designed specifically for heavy-duty use, this twisted extension lead incorporates premium construction techniques that set it apart from standard leads. The inclusion of a connector clip ensures that your plug and socket remain firmly together during operation, eliminating the risk of loose connections that could disrupt your RC experience. This is particularly important for ready to run RC models where reliability is non-negotiable. The Radient brand has earned a reputation for producing quality RC accessories that withstand the demands of competitive and recreational flying and driving, and this extension lead exemplifies that commitment to excellence.
Perfect for pilots and drivers who need to extend their receiver connections, integrate additional servos, or improve cable management in tight spaces, the Radient JR Twisted HD Extension Lead is a must-have addition to any RC hobby toolkit. Available now at RC Model Shop, this is the kind of no-compromise accessory that separates serious RC enthusiasts from casual users.
Key Features
- 900mm Length — At 900mm (35.43 inches) including connectors, this extension lead offers substantial reach for complex RC setups where stock leads fall short, allowing you to position components optimally without signal loss.
- Male to Female JR Connector — The standard JR connector configuration (brown, red, and orange wires) ensures universal compatibility with the majority of RC radios, receivers, and servo equipment used in the UK RC hobby scene.
- 60-Strand 22AWG Twisted Wire — The twisted construction with 60 strands of 22 AWG gauge wire minimises electromagnetic interference and provides exceptional signal clarity, which is critical for precise servo response in racing and aerobatic applications.
- Heavy-Duty Construction — Built to withstand repeated connections and disconnections, vibration, temperature fluctuations, and the general wear and tear of active RC use, ensuring longevity and reliability.
- Included Connector Clip — This dedicated clip securely holds the plug and socket together, preventing accidental separation during operation and providing peace of mind during flight or driving sessions.
- Low-Loss Design — Engineered for minimal signal degradation, ensuring that servo commands are transmitted with absolute fidelity, resulting in faster response times and more precise control of your RC model.
- 1.5mm Outer Diameter — The compact diameter makes this lead easy to route through tight spaces, around motor mounts, and through cable channels without creating bulk or restricting airflow.
Technical Performance
The Radient JR Twisted HD Extension Lead represents the intersection of practical engineering and quality manufacturing. The twisted pair construction of the 60-strand 22AWG wire is a professional-grade approach to signal transmission that you'll find in competition-level RC equipment. This twisted configuration effectively cancels out electromagnetic interference from nearby electrical components, servo motors, and brushless systems, ensuring clean signal transmission to your receiver and servos. The 1.5mm outer diameter keeps the lead compact and lightweight whilst maintaining adequate conductor cross-section for reliable current delivery and signal integrity. At just 0.02kg in shipping weight, this accessory adds negligible mass to your RC setup, yet delivers measurable improvements in control responsiveness. The JR connector standard ensures this lead will work seamlessly with the vast majority of RC radios available in the UK market, from budget-friendly setups to high-end competition equipment. Whether you're integrating this into a brushless RC car UK system, a helicopter receiver arrangement, or an aircraft radio installation, the heavy-duty construction and twisted HD design guarantee years of reliable service. The connector clip feature is particularly valuable in vibration-heavy environments where loose connections could cascade into control failures during critical moments.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the Radient JR Twisted HD Extension Lead compatible with my RC radio transmitter? — Yes, this lead features standard JR connectors (brown, red, and orange wires) which are compatible with the vast majority of RC radios, receivers, and servo equipment available in the UK. JR connectors are the industry standard, so compatibility is exceptionally broad unless you're using specialised proprietary systems.
- What is the advantage of twisted wire construction for RC extension leads? — The twisted pair design of the 60-strand wire significantly reduces electromagnetic interference from brushless motors, ESCs, and other electrical components in your RC model. This results in cleaner signal transmission, faster servo response times, and more precise control — particularly important if you're running a brushless RC car UK system or high-powered aircraft.
- Can I use this extension lead for both RC cars and RC aircraft? — Absolutely. The 900mm length and JR connector compatibility make this extension lead suitable for a wide range of RC applications, including receiver extensions in RC buggies, monster trucks, helicopters, and aeroplanes. The heavy-duty construction ensures it will perform reliably in any RC hobby application.
- Why is the connector clip included? — The connector clip prevents accidental separation of the plug and socket during operation. This is especially valuable in high-vibration environments like brushless RC cars or in aircraft where unexpected disconnection could result in loss of control. It provides both security and peace of mind.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — Yes, the Radient JR Twisted HD Extension Lead is suitable for RC enthusiasts of all experience levels, including beginners. However, it is recommended for users aged 14 and above. If you're building your first ready to run RC model and need to extend receiver connections or add additional servos, this lead provides the quality and reliability that will serve you well as you develop your skills.
- What does 22AWG wire mean? — AWG stands for American Wire Gauge, which measures wire thickness. 22AWG wire is a standard gauge for RC servo leads and extension cables, offering an excellent balance between flexibility, current-carrying capacity, and signal transmission quality. The 60-strand construction of this gauge provides both strength and flexibility.
- How does the 1.5mm outer diameter affect my RC setup? — The 1.5mm outer diameter is compact and lightweight, making routing through tight spaces on your RC model significantly easier. This is particularly valuable if you're fitting multiple servos or receivers in a crowded airframe or chassis. The diameter also minimises weight addition to your RC car or aircraft.
