What is this servo connector and where can I get a new one

[JosephS]

I have a Novak gtb2 esc.

It has a non standard connector on it I am trying to find

The larger connector is a standard connector.
The other connector is what the manual calls it a mini jst connector but apparently that is fairly generic name and internet searches give me to many wrong options

It’s 6mm wise and 2mm thick.

Would standard servo crimping tools work on this connector?
Is this connector used and available anywhere?

According to the manual, it still fits standard receivers. They simply refer to it as a mini plug.

The small connector pictured is the connector to match the pins Novak use on the ESC, whilst the larger connector is a standard radio receiver connector. Looks from the image like your small connector is fine, so should just be a matter of splicing / soldering on another receiver connector / lead. Just make sure to match the colours

Unless I am completely missing the purpose of your post....

I'm looking for spares in case weird old stuff I have break. I'm hoping to grab a spare of the small connector so that if something happens to it I can just wire up a new harness. The larger standard connector is dead easy to find, if that small one breaks I'll need a new ESC. knowing the proper name would be my first step in understanding if I can get a spare.

No probs mate, that makes more sense. Hopefully someone here will be able to steer you in the right direction.

the tekin hotwire sometimes comes with a small adapter that looks really close to this, I guess to connect to some of their esc's without disconnecting from the receiver:

it's cheap enough to give it a try.

that sure looks like the right thing. I'll add that to my next order. Thanks!
