Recently I have noticed that the grey cable that goes into the XT60 connector on the Phantom has separated slightly from the heat shrink tubing. And if you bend the cable you can see the wires inside. Today the gap between the cable insultion and the heat shrink tubing is a bit wider and a few of the electrical wires have broken and are poking out. :| The connection still seems sound and for the moment I have applied some insulating tape around it. My soldering skills are nil and I know if I tried to recut and resolder the cable with fresh heat shrink it would far weaker than it is currently. Will this current fix be ok do you think? I do remember seeing someone else on a Phantom forum saying that the cable had broken completely! Which is when I started to inspect mine and eventually find this! Pity there are no local hobby shops which seem fairly widespread in the States (or so it seems!).
