Can I change an on/off switch on my transmitter with a pot and expect it to give me gradual changes in the signal?
My radio is an old 72MHz JR XP652 - and I don't know enough of the internals of the radio to know if it can be easily done. I assume the switches or pots just regulate the PPM signal directly - in which case it should be a question of just replacing the switch - but if the radio knows that this channel should be a switch it might only allow on and off values.
If this can be done, what resistance value should be used for the pot?
Final objective: Use the pot for smooth flaperons, and eventually an FPV pan servo.
