Default can I use my older airtronics servos with my new jr radio? wich leads do I flip?

I was told that I can use my older airtronics servo's (from a vanguard 6ch) on my new jr radio, but I have to flip two wires in the connectors.
Can someone tell me wich wires this is?
Thanks

ok I read that page but I'm still a little confused...
mine is the older black connector...
does that mean I can switch the wires and use it? or the connector is wrong and i can't??

I was able to use a sharp knife to trim the heck out of the old Airtronics plastic plug so that it would fit. However, I am a bit anal about such things, so most were later updated with modern JR style connector ends.

Default Air to JR/Hitec/AirZ

Airtronics do adaptor leads for "old to new" and vice-versa, but they are about $4- each

Cermark and Maxx do them as well, just as good IMO, and a bit cheaper. If you don't like cuttin' and cussin' they're just the ticket!
