    Couple of things. If you are going to use those female connectors, get some that are protected on the outside so if the shift, they won't touch each other. Also, when you crimp the wire inside of it, you should only strip about 1/8" of insulation off the wire. Get some electrical tape and cover up those bare wires. I know it is only 12v but you will burn your wallwart prematurely.

    I use that same motor on one of my FCG's. Unless your ghost is really light, you may want to counterweight it, which will help that motor lift and drop your ghost smoothly. Good luck on your prop!
