Barry,

Why not use small cable ties of various colours, this is what I do; white for u/c, green for aileon, red for elevator, black for throttle and yellow for flap. If you end up with two of same clour together, then add another tie (red for port or green for starboard)

I bought a Dymo 'Rhino' labelling machine - it allows you to print 'flag' markers and will also print on shrink sleeve, which is very handy. http://global.dymo.com/enGB/Categories/ ... nters.html
