 This might vary a bit depending on variant. Hopefully others can add their experiences to this page.
+===== RSENSE wires =====
+**Mark 2M0IIG:** When I did this I had four yellow and four black wires rather than three of each. Apparently the thinner wires of each colour are the wires for voltage sensing. If you connect them along with the other three of each colour the PSU will supposedly detect voltage drops and accommodate for it.
