[NSRCA-discussion] Help: Servo pins pulled out of connector body

 For the price of crimpers and pins,you can get the servos repaired and checked out at the repair facility. Need them checked out anyway. If they are $90 servos this is worth it.       $60????.     $30 not worth the trouble.

  Ed,
      Sounds like I can either get the kit and crimper from Maxx or cut the connector ends off defunct servos / extentions and solder them to the existing servo wires - using heat shrink to keep any flexing away from the solder joints.  Any preference ?
  Thanks,
  Paul

    Paul:
    Better off to replace the entire connector and pins.  Most likely the plastic housing was damaged from the pin pulling out.  Also, the wire had to get strained where it is clasped by the crimp pins.  Maxx Products sells connector kits, but you need a crimper tool.

          I strained my Meridian through a tree, wrecked the plane but the equipment appears OK with the exception of both aileron servos.  When the wings came off the servo connector body stayed in the fuse and the servos wires and pins went with the wings.  
          My question is : can I simply re-insert the servo pins in another connector body (taken from defuct servos or extentions) ?
      Thanks,
      Paul
