[NSRCA-discussion] Servo lead crimping tools

[steve hannah]

I always cut and splice the wires.  After a few years of trying the
self-crimp method, I found that I was never able to get the same quality as
the factory automated crimpers used by the oem's.  Especially on connectors
that are repeatedly removed, like ailerons.
