Stick Tension!!

[Shaun_23286]

Has anyone any idea how you alter the tension on the stick springs in the Futaba P-CB3GR Transmitter? There are no screw's or anything inside to alter it so the only thing i can think of is chopping the springs down (trying to avoid if pos)

Or is it possible to buy shorter/stiffer springs?

Any help would be appreciated

Cheers
Shaun.

h buddy not got that handset but what are you wanting to do ,, are you tryng to stiffen or losen then sticks

There's no adjustment in the manual mate, but back in the day we used to remove a turn on the spring to make it stiffer or lengthen the spring slightly to make it lighter hope this helps fella.

Trying to make them stiffer mate lol yeah i was wondering if chopping the springs down was the only option but i wasnt sure if the center coils of the spring would be strong enough to make a new loop to connect back onto the sticks. I thought maybe the ends would have been manufactured stronger with it being the anchor point.

Can you not just by shorter springs lol

Cheers guys
