Radio - Servo - Gyro - Gov - Batt > Connectors coming loose!

I have had servo connctors vibrate loose out of my reciver twice now. I have now put a string through each connector and tied it around the reciever.

Does anyone else have any tips on other ways to secure the connectors?

loose connectors

Jesper,
I've had this problem on a few occasions over the years.
I guite often make up my own connectors when wanting to shorten or lengthen wires
This is how I handle the problem.
Remove the "female" pins from the connector and with your fingernail
indent one side of the "square". Then trial fit it onto a pin for a good fit. I often find this problem when useing "Aftermarket" connector parts and useing them with "Futaba" Type pins.
I hope this is of some small help.
Regards

Yepp, this is what happend to me the first time when using a regulator with non-standard connectors. However, it seems that my last incident may have been due to a faulty battery. Anyhow, I now use a wire+melt-glue to secure the connectors.

Thanks,

Jesper
