    Hi Phil, I have the Quantum SS designed for the Turnigy 9XR transmitter, trim would be electronic, have to get an encoder together first. Maybe I can use small trimmers on either side of hall sensor, but that would not be very practical. Or get an 9XR an use the guts to build a SS radio. Cheers Pat

    Hi Phil, Any possibility to use magnetic hall sensor for the stick? What would be needed to that? I have a nice SS stick waiting for a home.

    Thanks Phil. Almost can't wait to get back home. Cheers

    Hi Phil, Please count me in for one 12 ch reeds encoder board. Cheers Pat Edited By Patrick Thieleman on 09/11/2014 00:13:25 Edited By Patrick Thieleman on 09/11/2014 03:51:25

    Posted by Phil Green on 30/10/2014 00:08:00: Ok lets try for some numbers. Who would be up for a commercially made, drilled & tinned PCB for the 7 channel encoder with S/C mix? It would be very much like the one above, and probably cost round about £6 (guesstimate) A good break-even number is 25 boards. I'm not asking for an actual commitment, just looking for likely numbers. If it looks favourable, I'll do it Cheers Phil Hi Phil, As said count me in for 2 at least. Cheers Pat

    That looks awesome Phil. You can book me for at least 2 of them, together with the Pro-mini's, of course the 12ch reeds also, but you knew that already. Cheers Pat

    Thanks to Phil and Paul, here is my conversion. Kraft Series Seventy-Two.  Works great, still needs some cleanup inside. I love the single stick and S/C. Edited By Patrick Thieleman on 21/10/2014 06:14:06

    Bit off-topic, this may become the donor case for my old DX7 electronics, I know its a Futaba. got it for $1.25 + shipping, say less than $20, looks like Paul Luby's Futaba. Cheers Pat

    Thx Phil, you made me do it.

    All the little things were fixed before that flight and it works seamless now. Nice little radio I have, feels so much better than the plastic Spectrum sets. I usually build my models mechanically right, and I never use the electronics to correct mistakes in pushrods or whatever. Just like long time ago, when we did not have servo-reverse and so many other things. Next on my list is the reeds, but need to finish some planes. And then a S/C set somewhere during the winter.

    Did my first flight with the Kraft, took me a few moment to get accustomed with the single stick set. But all worked fine, and the S/C was great fun. Going to be one of my most used sets in the future. Cheers Pat

    Thanks Phil, Thinking about it today let me come to the same conclusion, I remember now that You said somewhere the switches were not needed for rates and expo. So I am changing that too. Reason I have the elevator wrong is that all the pots have a similar wiring code, for example aileron: neg = orange, wiper= green-orange, pos= red. elevator was neg=yellow, wiper=green-yellow, pos= red, ect. I know my wiring inside looks far from neat, but I know all the colors in my head now. I also have to switch my throttle wires,because low trim is on the top. Anyway beside these issues caused by myself, the Kraft is working great, I was hoping to do a flight with it today, but it started raining, Some guys at work where exited about an +40 years old radio having a new life. I will try to clean the wiring up a bit over the winter without removing the original, and make a nicer collector for the pot wiring. Anyway your help is very much appreciated. I believe You made another single channel addict. Cheers Pat

    Hi Phil, A few questions, My S/C emulation works fine, but my elevator goes down instead of up. And it looks like I made a mistake with the expo/rates pots, where do you connect the switch function to? neg feed, wiper or 5v feed? Cheers, Pat

    Phil, That C&S Hawk will be an awesome project and set to have, how do get the original color? I guess some automotive body repair shop can get very close to it. I am looking for those reed cases, do they ship them to Canada? Thx
