Default Center RESET

I found a hobby shop(Dymond Modelsport USA they have a web site) in Oshkosh WI that sells the J male and female plugs (1.80) so I soldered J plugs on the servos and my test equipment (should av done that before the flight). (I would hate to be in the Shuttle engineer's shoes now)
Didn't mind loosing the Plane as much as looking like an ass at the field.

When you say recenter the servos do you mean using the spline shaft/arm or resetting the internal gears???

Also, are you saying that the old servos will work on new PCM FM radios??? I thought that PCM radios required a special PCM servo. That is neat. I got piles of old Futaba servos.

So I guess my Gold AM Futaba radios are trash, huh? Damn, they were great radios.
I was so busy in the early 90s I missed the conversion.
