Do any of you guys have a resource for different color silicon coated wires for electronics? I'm looking for Purple specifically but any other colors.

GS Racing makes Purple Silicone wires, 12Ga is 665 Strand count, so it may be stiffer than Wet Noodle 1000+?

i look for more info they have some 13g stuff looks like they have 15g stuff too but that could be actually 14g calling and verifying would be a good idea

I've got some General Silicones 12Ga in Purple, Yellow, and something that is close to Novak orange but a little lighter. How much did you want?

point i was trying to make is this. take advantage of the net google is awesome. it takes some time but you can find alot of the stuff we use for alot cheaper. sometimes the actuall name of the item might change because in the comercial industy it's not called "super flex wire" so try starting with 14 g or 14awg in the search.

The RC industy is the most grossly over priced industy in the world. I don't know how the manufactors sleep at night.

Probably about 3 feet, I'm going to wire one of my cars with all purple wires to go along with the purple anodized parts.

Just enough for the brushless motor to speed control and then the lipo leads.

Let me know the cost

Just bought some. You guys are awesome, I knew I could do my own research but I thought that's what this forum is all about, racers helping each other out. :thumbsup:

Have you ever slept on a pile of $1 bills and Quarters at night? lol it's heaven.

As far as wire goes. Esthetics are nice but Dean's Wet Noodle is the only way to go.

look on ebay in the rc area under 12 gauge wire, they have almost any color you could think of.
