Can you identify this stick assembly?
I bought an old Digitrio transmitter off eBay and while the transmitter itself has seen better days, the 3-axis joystick is in near-perfect condition. All it will require is a light rebuilding (lubricating, mostly.)
Anyway, can any of you identify it? There are no manufacturer's markings on it but I'm sure it wasn't a one-time homemade unit because I've seen identical joysticks in a few pictures of vintage radios. I guess it's possible that they were all homemade from published plans but the workmanship on mine is outstanding and doesn't appear to have been constructed with a hacksaw and file. This tells me that it was probably a professionally manufactured joystick.
I've been told that it's not a 'Chidgey' stick.
Yes, this thread is related to my earlier post requesting a Futaba schematic.
Many thanks,
Harvey

RE: Can you identify this stick assembly?
It doesn't look like a Kraft stick either. I built a Royal Clasic 69 6 channel set and I used the Kraftt Single stick in it. The knob was quite a bit larger and black plastic. Two donw, how many more to go?
