I have an old hitec Ranger 3 FM transmitter that I have been using for 7 years now. A couple of battery compartment
contacts have broken off so I am going to start using the DX5e Mode 2 that I use for my other 3 boats.
I took apart the Ranger and removed the Pot used for jib trim on my EC-12.
My question is: Can I just cut the wires going to the Elevator pot inside the DX5e and solder them to my old pot,
or is there an additional mod I need to do? The pot out of the Ranger looks to be a 10K pot.
Is a better solution to just plug the jib trim servo into the elevator position on the reciever and use the rudder
stick up and down to trim the jib? Will that work?
Thanks for the feedback.
