When I get home i'll check on my receipt to see if there is anything else coming. Would the 0.75 wire you recommended be thick enough for the 4.2 amp motors.
Cheers again

Andrew where did I recommend 0.75mm cable ? I said 0.5mm is fine for signal wires but you will need 0.75mm for steppers (CY 4 is good ) as Jazz said. the screen on the CY cable needs to be grounded to the star point in the control box. ( at one end only)

A star point is just a connection point where all the grounds connect to in one place (it is to stop current loops)
