Post by thread:Futaba J-connectors

This is not exactly PIC related but I have seen that a lot of people on this list are into making electronic speed controllers for radio control so... Can someone tell me the generic name or part number and a place to buy the Futaba J-connectors that plug into the radio receiver? Mal Goris -- http://www.nfra.nl/~mgoris/

They are a non-standard item, that is, you won't find them at Digi-Key or any such sort. You can buy them from http://www.fmadirect.com if you like. They had a mold made to make them by the gazillions, and are fast replacing other second-source vendors in the hobby market. That's where I buy mine for the speed controls I make (see http://www.users.fast.net/~montana/root.html and follow "standard products").
