How-to: Change the throttle ratchet spring over on a Futaba T8J

[johnrs]

Hi Chaps.

When I got my Futaba T8J the throttle stick was very noisy due to the type of spring/ratchet.

Done a short video on how to change this so its smother and allows for better throttle control

Cheers

The version with the ratchet throttle is for planes the heli version of the radio has no ratchet or thats how they used to sell them, back when I had a field force 9 I bough the heli version for this reason I hated the ratchet even for flying planes and did get into helicopters anyway 
Very usefull video for those who wish to swap over

yeah was bloody annoying and thought I might have to take it back until I found out that you could swap over so its not too bad now.
