Wire & Connectors

Selecting high-quality wires is critical in ensuring reliability and good performance in any drone build. The proper application of wire gauges and materials is an important variable in influencing the performance of the entire drone, so ensure that the proper gauges are applied. Though more expensive, silicone wire should be mandatory for any drone build to reduce the risk of fire. It is normal for the wires to get very hot during aggressive flight maneuvers, which can easily melt the exterior sheaths of most non silicone wires. To make things easier, below are wires we recommend for your Genesis build.

Recommended Wires:

Name	Link	Guage	Notes
Ultra Thin Wire	Link	30 AWG	Use for signal and data lines.
Thin Wire	Link	24 AWG	Use to provide low voltage power to accessories.
Medium Wire	Link	16 AWG	Use for motor wires.
Thick Wires	Link	10 AWG	Use for primary power lines between battery and ESC.

Make sure to use Silicone Wire and check that the correct gauge wire is sourced.
