Title: I need help with this potentiometer
Post by: ian@737ng.co.uk on April 15, 2011, 07:43:13 AM
hi guys........
well i'm in the s**t here.... my captain's yoke has started to act up and i've traced the fault to a 'dodgy' potentiometer.    ok, i hear you say, just change it  ;D
ah! here lies the problem.     my yoke was custom made as a prototype from an idea i had and as such the pot has to fit inside the holder.   that means it has to be the exact same pot that
i have now.    all i can see on the pot is 10k which is it's value, but no manufacturer's name.
would be really pleased if somebody could identify make and model for me so i can do looking for a replacement.
thanks in advance chaps......

ian

Hey Guys,

I'm still here, following in the background. Not much time to build for the moment because of to much real work.

Greetz to you all
