IMU wire fix (fingers crossed)

I was struggling to get the pitch to work due to the IMU cables .
I did swap for the finest wire  I could fine , which was better .but still not wright.

So now I got  a broken brushless motor and used the winding wires .
And it works great...

Is they any reason that I shoudnt use these cables (other than its not too strong)?

cheers

Silicone servo wire is good.  24 or 26 Awg.  But if what u have works stick with it.  I';d imagine they will be around the same Awg.  Surprised they work well though being single core I';d have thought they lacked flexibility.

up to now works well , but I am comparing against the cable used before which was far to heavy and stiff. The motor was a small bell type with very fine cable .
but I will order some 26Awg next time I am buying supplies.
Thanks you for the tip

Flexibility.  You are right..single core usually snaps if flexed long enough.
Let's be careful out there.
SAFETY is.. NO accident.
