Just a quick tip, if installing an extension lead in a model, make it very difficult for the plug to come out of the socket - someone's law says that if it can go wrong, it will, and always at the most inconvenient moment.
When in Maplin's I picked up some "7mm" heatshrink tubing.
This is not quite big enough to fit over a Futaba socket... unless you stretch it's diameter a bit (I slide the tube onto some external circlip pliers and squeeze them a bit bigger).
This is what it looks like shrunk and installed in a wing...
