Yes Tony, I am interested in hearing a little more detail on your statement
" I have the encoders in stock, as Futaba made a change in the production of
the 14MZ and sent me new ones to change out when needed "
TIA....Ed M.

Tony,
You had said something earlier about some upgrade for the14mz. When did
this become available. Is it an easy fix?
Mike
ps I need a non switch regulator. could you mail one? Also, I can't get my
sim9aeroflypro to work with my 9z. Do you need to fix something? I have
sent the sim to the company and they say it is fine.Thanks

What is the resolution of the shaft encoder?

Hi Tony,
Does the throttle channel use the same encoder? If so, then it must be
some sort of absolute encoder.

I am just passing along the info as the comment was made. I have the
encoders in stock, as Futaba made a change in the production of the 14MZ and
sent me new ones to change out when needed.

The futaba 14MZ flyer I have says "Gimbals with long-life
potentiometer, quad bearings, adjustable tension and detent."
In general encoders are not absolute positioning devices and you need
to define "home". Resolvers are absolute positioning devices but larger and
more costly.

The Futaba 14MZ uses shaft encoders on the sticks..

Hah, I didn't even think about the stick pots. Seems that would be the
first place they would try using shaft encoders.
Linear outputs from the servos would be great, also. Oh, wait a
minute, that was done 35 years ago with the KPS-11 servos. Nevermind....

Isn't technology great - $2000+ TX and $100+ servos with everything
riding on a 50 cent pot on each end!

When you say analog, I assume you are talking about the feedback
loop? I wonder how long it will be until we get shaft encoders in our
servos. Or, for that matter, the shaft encoder could be mounted to the
control surface itself.

Correct. Well kind of. Actually all of our servos are analog
but you are right, the super servos used the same principles as our modern
"digital" servos.

I was under the impression that the "Super Servos" were
actually first generation digital servos. Is that not correct?
