Title says it all: What type of wire do you guys use in your av-bays and where do you buy it?
Thanks.
Thanks.
I use the wires from the ematches. 22 gage solid. As I use new wires for every flight, the solid/stranded is not an issue.

I use this as disposable wiring. New wire each launch, also. I learned this from Tom and I have never had a failure.
I use 20-24 gauge silicon wire. Works great and is very flexible to put into small spots.

I use this stuff too. I try to do a large combined order from Hobby King, which includes several LiPo's, velcro tie-downs, JST connectors, a battery charger, etc. You can buy silicone wire in various gauges, usually less than $1 per meter.
I am just starting to plan/work on my first AV bay. Is there any reason why speaker wire wouldn't work? The stuff I have is 16 or 18 gauge. Will that be too thick?
I buy the altimeter kits from Doghouse as well as bulk wire by the foot.I use this stuff and at bottom of page for sale by the foot
