Available now at RC Model Shop, your trusted UK RC retailer.

Key Features

• 1000mm Total Length — The full 1000mm measurement includes both the male and female JR connectors, giving you substantial reach for routing servo leads through complex chassis designs or over longer distances within your RC model without needing to extend from the receiver itself.
• 60-Strand Twisted Wire Construction — The 60-strand twisted configuration dramatically improves signal quality compared to standard leads, reducing electromagnetic interference and ensuring crisp, responsive servo control even in environments with multiple transmitters or high electrical noise.
• 22AWG Wire Gauge — This wire thickness provides an optimal balance between flexibility for easy routing and signal integrity, ensuring reliable power and signal delivery without excessive voltage drop over the 1000mm length.
• Included Connector Clip — The integrated clip keeps your JR connector securely fastened in place, eliminating loose connections that could cause servo dropout, glitches or loss of control during critical moments in racing or challenging terrain driving.
• Heavy-Duty JR Connector Specification — Manufactured to exacting standards with proper JR colour coding (brown, red and orange), these connectors mate perfectly with standard JR servo receivers and servos, ensuring compatibility with the vast majority of RC equipment in the UK market.
• Compact 1.5mm Outer Diameter — Despite its robust 60-strand construction, the lead maintains a slim 1.5mm outer diameter, making it easy to route through tight spaces, cable ducts and complex servo runs without bulk or obstruction inside your model's chassis.
• 2mm Overall Diameter — The finished assembly including outer sheathing measures just 2mm in diameter, allowing multiple leads to be bundled together cleanly without excessive weight or space consumption in your RC model.

Technical Performance

The Radient JR Twisted HD Extension Lead represents a significant upgrade over standard servo extension leads commonly found in basic RC car kits and budget offerings. The 60-strand twisted wire topology is critical for maintaining signal integrity in modern RC applications, where multiple high-frequency control signals pass through the same chassis. Unlike single-strand or loosely braided alternatives, the twisted construction actively cancels out electromagnetic interference, ensuring your servo responses remain crisp and accurate even when operating alongside other RC models at a track or in a multi-model driving environment. The 22AWG wire gauge has been carefully selected to deliver optimal performance: thicker than typical hobby-grade leads for superior signal quality, yet flexible enough to route through tight servo bays and body panels without requiring excessive force or risk of damage. The 1.5mm inner diameter combined with proper sheathing gives you a finished lead measuring just 2mm overall, making it one of the slimmest high-quality extension options available for serious RC builders in the UK. At 0.02kg shipping weight, the lead adds negligible mass to your model while the 1000mm length (39.37 inches) provides genuine versatility for everything from compact 1/10-scale on-road racers to larger monster trucks and crawlers. The included connector clip is machined to precise tolerances and features positive detent action, preventing accidental disconnection during hard landings, high-speed cornering or competition driving. This is a component you can rely on for daily bashing, competitive racing, or show-quality scale models where reliability is paramount.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Is the Radient JR Twisted HD Extension Lead compatible with my RC servo? — This extension lead uses standard JR connectors and is compatible with any RC servo or receiver equipped with JR-type connectors. JR connectors are among the most widely used servo standards in the RC hobby, found on most receivers and servos available in the UK market. Check your existing equipment's connector type before purchasing if you're unsure.
• What is the difference between a twisted wire extension lead and a standard lead? — Twisted wire construction actively cancels electromagnetic interference and signal noise, providing cleaner servo response and more reliable control, especially in electrically noisy environments or when running multiple RC models simultaneously. Standard leads lack this protection and are more susceptible to interference, potentially causing servo jitter or dropout.
• Why is the connector clip important? — The included connector clip provides positive retention, preventing accidental disconnection during rough driving, impacts or high-speed manoeuvres. Without a clip, vibration and jarring movements can work connectors loose, causing temporary or permanent loss of servo control.
• Can I use this extension lead in a waterproof RC model? — While the extension lead itself is constructed with quality materials, the JR connectors are not fully waterproof. For fully waterproof operation, you would need to protect the connection point with heat shrink tubing or waterproof extension leads specifically designed for submersible applications.
• What is the actual usable wire length in the 1000mm specification? — The 1000mm total length includes both the male and female JR connectors at each end. The actual twisted wire length is slightly less, but the specification provides the full end-to-end measurement for planning your servo routing and chassis layouts.
• Is this suitable for beginners? — Yes, absolutely. If you're building a custom RC car from a kit or modifying an existing model and need longer servo runs, this extension lead is straightforward to use. Simply plug the male end into your servo and the female end into your receiver. The pre-soldered connectors and included clip make installation foolproof.
• How many extension leads do I need? — This depends on your RC model's configuration. A typical 1/10-scale RC car uses 2-3 servos (steering, throttle, and possibly auxiliary functions), so you might need 2-3 extension leads if you're routing all servos away from the receiver. Many enthusiasts keep several spares in their RC toolkit for emergencies.
