When I wanted to remove the molded on tools on my Torro/ Heng Long Tiger 1 the turret was covering most of them, but to remove the turret meant disconnecting two wires leading from the turret ( all the other wires coming out of the turret are on two plugs already!!!! I came on the forum for help and of course instantly BLIMP came to my aid with this address- http://www.ebay.co.uk/bhp/jst-xh-connector
and there I found what I wanted, A Prewired Plug, A Connector, And Another Prewired Plug, they all fit together and the plug is a proper fit for the RX18, I cut the wires in the turret and soldered the ends to the wires coming out of my new plug and job done, all I have to do now is unscrew the turret ring and disconnect three plugs and the turret is free. It was a speedy delivery and paying by PAYPAL meant if there was a problem I could get my money back although they were so cheap I am not sure I would have bothered, these prewired plugs are available from 2 pin through to 8 pin and come in a pack of 10, and as I said before they fit the RX18 and the new Heng Long 2.4 board. By the way I found the prewired plugs came with more than enough wire to go straight from the turret to the RX18 without using the connector and the extending plug and wires. shaun

Good morning, Jarndice,
This is very cool! Plugs like this will be very useful to guys who mod the turrets with extra lighting and features.

nice one shaun
i've just got some micro 2 pin jst's from thief bay for the i.r lamps on a clark board.
cheap as chips, just need to patient (a month) to get them

i found a pack of 20 pairs of these leads when i last visited Howes Models late last year.
They work very well, and fit my existing Tamiya Elevation and Traverse systems.

Very handy
