I bought used, a Create RC5A-3. It came to me without
the factory plug to connect the cable to the rotor. I contacted
EDCO in Va. they sold me a replacement plug. All was FB,
until I tried to raise the TX-472 tower. SNAP went the $29 plug.
I now have a highly modified cable connector made of silicone,
tape bubble-gum, candy wrappers etc.=20

The instruction manual for the Rotor shows a connector that is
shorter than the one purchased from EDCO. The description is
Connector Plug, Type 7-25.

Any ideas where I might find one???
