Help needed with precise soldering

Having followed the thread here about simulators recently I obtained one of the simulators from Flying Tech. Unfortunately as I seem to have an old Futaba r/c setup this has the large size din trainer socket whereas the kit includes only a mini din plug. I was advised how to wire up the din to jackplug lead and which contacts to use but I now have a problem.

The pins on the din plug are very small and close together and my skill with soldering does not extend to this level of accuracy. My soldering iron has a large tip and although I could of course buy a thin version - that will not resolve my lack of skill.

Does anyone know of a company that could make a bespoke lead. This is my first foray into r/c flying (good timing I know !) so I was hoping to use lock down to get at least some indication of what to do. Hopefully this could be done by email and by post.

Are worth a try Julian

I have been looking at the wiring diagram with a view to doing this for you

But

I see there are two alternatives and you can bet that we select the wrong one

If you can be certain of your diagram

I will solder this up for you
