Title: Futaba 2.4 joystick conversion
Post by: SUN X1 on January 29, 2008, 02:55:21 pm
Hi,
I want to change the left hand joystick on my transmitter from ratchet system to spring loaded. A part is available to do this if one could locate it, Ripmax do them but  don't supply direct. I have tried getting one through Westbourne Models but they have none in stock does anyone know where I could locate the part please?

My pleasure Ray. They are mainly an aircraft shop but they do carry a lot of R/C gear, they are near my dentist so I call in for a look when I'm up that way. Helps calm my nerves afterwards!
