Connectors in Radio Control Applications: Common connectors and their applications In radio control applications, JST connectors and RC connectors have attracted much attention. However, JST is actually one of the connector manufacturers, and there are a variety of common sizes of connectors used in RC devices. How do I find the connector I need?
Let's explore these common connectors and see how they are used. First of all, the JST-XH1 connector has a pin size of 254mm, commonly found in many electronic components, such as lipo batteries and balanced plugs for PCs.
Next, the JST-ZH connector has a pin size of 15mm, while the JST-SH1 connector has a pin size of 10mm, commonly found in linear servo systems.
In addition, there is a common "JST" connector with 2 pins for connecting a small battery pack to the ESC, also known as a BEC connector, which has a pin size of 25mm。
In addition, the MolePicoBlade1 connector has a pin size of 125mm for use in a variety of applications, including Futaba, Flydream, Walkera, and HobbykingMicro (DSM2)24G system.
When dealing with these connectors, crimping tools such as the PA-09 tool are essential to help hobbyists with RC connectors. Because some high-quality connectors require expensive crimping tools**, consider using alternatives such as jumper and pre-crimped wire series. By understanding these common connectors and tools used, we are better able to select and apply them to provide a more convenient and efficient connectivity solution for our radio control applications.
