We haven't tested to find out the maximum wire length. I'll have jeremie try and see what we get. The speed is 3.3mbps for the streaming video - the wire length will affect the communication but i'm not sure of the maximum distance yet
Thanks DJ and crew for doing this. I was watching this thread and waiting for an answer. I'll be running a long cord on my robot also and this could have been an issue.
Grab yourself a JST crimper and you can make a cable as long as you need it to be with whatever colours you need and as many cores/cables you need. This is just one more reason for me to bite the bullet and get myself a JST crimper I guess.

Whats the length that comes stock? Or you still dont know?
this will answer your camera wire length question
Wow! Well, I don't think I heard what length its going to ship with. Could you give me that?

I think the length is 8" but there are extensions to make it longer for people who wish to mount the camera in a different place.
It looks like generic 3wire servo cable you are using.... awesome
It's 4 wire rryerson. Well, I might cut the cable and extend it myself.
There are a lot of 4 wire cables around as well. They are also pretty standard... I have a bunch for my I2C with my Vex stuff....

Yea , that's a good investment just to make your own cable to custom length.
I believe my dad has a crimper so I think ill do that.
