Jason,

I made a long cable initially - you need some 4 core phone wire with 4 pin RJ11 connectors on each end. You can also purchase longer cables - they are the type that connects the handset to the telephone.

The reason I went for the shoestring controller is because it enables you to make very small pulse movements of the motor that are much finer than you can achieve with the hand controller on the slowest speed.
