    Looks great! What size heat shrink did you use over the sticks?

    Funny, I ordered 2" black heat shrink about 10 minutes ago from Amazon.

    I'll report back after I install it.

    Hello All,

    I was looking for options on grips and ptt switches and found this thread. I am a novice at wiring and of course became confused at what I saw. The switch has 5 wires coming off of it, but the pigtails only have 4 wires. Where does the white wire go?

    Thanks in advance for any responses.
    Bob

    I used 1'' heat shrink on my control sticks. They came out good I thought. I'd say 1 1/4 might be easier to make the bends but more to shrink up also.

    Nothing like reviving an old thread.

    What size bike grips are compatible with the kitfox stick? 31.8mm?
