Want maximum power flow to your servos, and decrease the load on your radio receiver? This is how I do it. This principle will work no matter how many servos you have, 2, 3, or 4.

Get a 2" or 8" Killer RC micro splitter.
Get the servo that is on a channel by itself, in this case its the throttle servo.
Pull the yellow or white wire out of the plug. Use a sharp pick to pry up the plastic finger on the plug then pull on the wire.
Get an extra plug and put the yellow wire in it.
Plug the plug with the power wires into the micro splitter, in line with all the other servos black and red wires.
Plug the single wire plug into channel 2 on the receiver.
Plug the steering servo(s) into the micro splitter.
Plug micro splitter into channel 1 on the receiver.
Plug Super Bee kill switch into channel 3.
Make sure all black and red wires line up with each other .
Yellow and white wires should line up with each other.

Notice how I put the power switch in the middle of the Micro splitter, between the two steering servos. This will help spread out the amperage load on the copper conductors on the circuit board.
