RE: which conversion do I have?
ORIGINAL: 496xl ORIGINAL: w8ye I do not have a JR transmitter but I do have Hitec and Futaba transmitters. Even though they are the same polarity on the transmitters, the plugs are different sizes. meaning the center pin on the Tx(JR) is negative.....not positive like Futaba. Perry |

Sorry this is so drawn out..trying to see the big picture here....thx again. Perry |

RE: which conversion do I have?
Another Question....,
Does this mean that my Airframe switch(on/off, charge) could be used for both JR and Futaba. Meaning that my old/basic Futaba switch can be used on our newer system. thanks, Perry |

If you use a Futaba battery pack you will need to cut of the flange of the Futaba J plug with a #11 blade and shave it a bit. Any modeler who has been arond a bit can show you how to do this. You do need to get involved with a club and find a mentor as teaching oneself and just depending on these forums and a sim can get very expensive indeed. John |
RE: which conversion do I have?
The wire colors will be a little different but match the similar ones.
Brown Black Orange Red Yellow White |
RE: which conversion do I have?
Thanks again guys,
I will be joining a club near by as soon as I get fresh batterys and such.I have been out of A/C R/C for about 8 years,I do know how to fly,own 9 planes, been flying off and on for over 30 years, but sure have forgotten alot.All my a/c are Futaba equiped except the last one which is going to JR, thats why I have all the questions regarding Futaba and JR match-ups. It all sounds like that if I use the Hitec Supreme IIS Autoshift Dc Rx,I can now use either Futaba or JR equipment, thanks to friends like you.........us old and new timers can learn this hobby without having to take a box of trash bags to the field. Hats Off, Perry |
