I needed to do some wiring work on another project and all I could find at the time was 16 gauge in red only. I decided to use what I had remaining on the F550 build. The design itself does not call for this but I used this wire so that I could have removable connectors for the ESCs. This would make maintenance easier and would be easier to fix in the even of a crash.
My original design called for 20 gauge wire, using 16 gauge wire was a mistake. It is not flexible enough for where I am placing it and has started to fray. The only way to fix this is to rewire the entire frame with a thinner wire.
A shorted wire is a disaster waiting to happen.
