Simple solution to wire resistance for rotors. Run a 14-2 housewire in parallel to the rotor cable for the power leads. Since the rotor voltage is only 25-30 V it's no big deal. It's cheap and I have used it for years on all my rotors. Interior wire will last a good ten years in the FL sun. The UV outdoor is more expensive but will last forever.
