Can anyone tell me the motor cable length required for the Skyjib 8? I've sourced a motor I want but it only has 58 cm cables. Is this enough? Thanks.

do like most of us had to do, extend the cables.

Early SJ V1 came with 50cm booms. Later V1 versions came with 54cm booms. Hope it helps.

I actually fit all the ESCs in the landing gear. They are not visible at all. If one fails it will take me a few hours to change out but that's okay with me. All the Wookong electronics and receiver are the only things on the top side and they easily fit under the plastic bowl. I don't have pictures now because I'm on vacation but I'll try to post some when I get back.
