Default trim servo wiring

Would cat5 Plenum wire be appropriate for connecting the trim servos? It is 24 awg, extra conductors true, but just don't use. Would you use solid or stranded?

I believe others have done the same. With anything on a plane, ALWAYS use stranded. Solid is too prone to cracking from fatigue and vibrations.
