winchweight Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Hi. I've done this a few times and it's quite simple. You need to swap over the potentiometer from the elevator, with the one for throttle. If you open the back you will see each stick connects to a gimble. Each gimble is attached to the casing by a four sided box. This box can be unscrewed and dismantled. The potentiometers can then be gently pulled off and swapped over. Just remember which is which. Re-assemble the housings, remembering to swap the rachet and spring for the throttle over too. Thats it. Take it slowly and keep an eye on what went where as you dismantle it.

Nick Burroughs Posted March 7, 2007 Author Share Posted March 7, 2007 Thanks for that Shaun, I will give it a try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winchweight Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Its easy enough. Just take your time, oh and the trims go with the pots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Burroughs Posted March 9, 2007 Author Share Posted March 9, 2007 Hi ShaunYour idea does not work on my set. Allthe pots are fixed directly to a pcb and moving them is not an option. If you move them then the result will be - no change.I cannot rewire the joystick either as the connectors are different on each joystick.The tx motherboard is marked with mode numbers so I think that the answer is on this board.Any more ideas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winchweight Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Oh, sorry mate. I've done this a few times and never seen that. Must be a newer version. I know Hitec have made it impossible to change except by sending back to manufacteurers. Oh well, win some loose some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Fenton Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 Nick, on the JR, I just moved the ratchet and centreing spring across from the one stick on to the other. Could this be an option on this Tx? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Burroughs Posted April 26, 2007 Author Share Posted April 26, 2007 Hi Danny, sorry for delay but Telefonica (Spanish for BT!) screwed up my phone line. I think that your idea is the most practical, I can sort out channel allocation on the rx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Fenton Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Hi Nick, we think BT are bad LOL, I think that will be easiest, the problem may be configuring diff switches etc, you don't tend to get a diff switch for the throttle, and if that is now your elevator you may lose that functionality. On the JR PCM you move the ratchet, and centreing spring to whichever sticks you want, then simply select modes 1 to 4 through the panel. But that is why the JR PCM is expensive I guess.
