I am rehabilitating a nine year old HL Tiger 1 that had a main board die some years ago. This particular model is so old that it does not have an RX18 and it has soldered in wiring. Where can I find the wire connectors that I need to put this tank back together and connect the wiring to the RX18? Many thanks! |

HI There The connectors used by Heng Long are JST-XH connectors. If you do a search on eBay for JST-XH you will find them. However, these connectors are mostly used for LiPo batteries and hence you will find lots of connectors under 6-way. You might find it hard to get a 8-way but they are there. For a one off job you could get away with crimping the wires with some needle nose pilers and then add a bit of solder. To crimp properly you will need to get a crimper. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Engineer-PA-21- ... 2a36e143e0 I can vouch for the PA-21, I use it all the time. There are some way more expensive crimpers and some cheaper ones. Cheers Kevin G |

I found a source in Hong Kong for a decent price that includes shipping. Please note the product description for why it would not show up on the search... Thanks for your help. |
