The one thing Digikey does NOT sell is the correct cable; you need 24 gauge wire (see R85) - best source I have found is eBay, search for HiTec Servo Wire, about $15 for 50 feet.

The 3 pin Molex connector bodies are on Digikey catalog page 110, as item WM2801-ND, but they are costly. I suggest buying the 7 pin bodies instead (WM2805-ND) and cutting them into two 3-pin pieces (sacrificing the center cavity).

Don't forget that you also need pins and sockets (like WM2512-ND and WM2515-ND), it would be a good idea to get a crimper (WM9999-ND) and perhaps an insertion tool (WM9911-ND).
