Schematic for a Futaba 4YF transmitter?
Hi all,
I want to do some tinkering with the joystick in my Futaba 4YF transmitter but Futaba doesn't release schematics. Are they available anywhere else?
No, I'm not going to mess with the RF section. (I'm aware of the FCC rules.)
Thanks for any advice,
Harvey

RE: Schematic for a Futaba 4YF transmitter?
Per my previous post, for those who are wondering what I'm up to, I want to convert my 4YF transmitter to single-stick.
True, it may not be economically feasible but I would like to try it anyway.
Yes, I'm aware that single-stick transmitters (but not 4YF) are already available on eBay. I'm a tinkerer at heart and this is more of a 'project' for me than anything else.
No, I don't intend to make more than one. (It's not a commercial venture.)
And yes, I'm aware that Futaba will completely divorce itself from my transmitter if I modify it. (It's out of warranty anyway.)
