Title: URGENT! Flysky CT6B TX Potentiometer dead..
Post by: tiluji on September 17, 2016, 06:28:15 PM
I have a flysky ct6b tx and suddenly the aileron channel that  is left side horizontal stick got jammed. Turns out the potentiometer is jammed. Anyone have any idea what is the value or specifics of the potentiometer as the flysky customer support is shit and wont reply even after several emails! I ha e very important Drone competition coming up. Quick Help Appreciated.

Why dont you find out yourself. ;)
Its simple try to find it using another potentiometer of the gimbal.
Mostly any value of potentiometer will work because the internally the chip reads the analog value which takes in voltage as input and potentiometer acts as potential divider circuit.
Just try it with some random potentiometer from 2K to 5K and it works without any problem.
But keep in mind you need special type of potentiometer only 90 degrees turn, not 270~360.

hi

potentiometer construction is same but the k value is different , you can do one thing try our p meter if it does not work , return it , no return value charge as most of the radios use same potentiometer

CT6B Using 5K Ohm 80deg travel type Pots, you can use any value from 2K to 8K but need to calibrate after installing using T6 Configuration App, I have some salvaged spare Pots From CT6B, Let me know if you want that, but you should wait atleast 1week for ship'em.


Edit: @ Hobbysea, That Pots( http://hobbysea.com/products.php?1012&cPath=101) from your site will not fit CT6B, Both have different Shape, Look at the Pic Below.
