Ooops Long time ago.LOL.

 

Not that it matters, in 2003 I was using a RD8000. A year or so later I
switched the springs to the Stylus when I got it.

A few years back (2003), Jim H. and Bobby S. from the Chicago group helped
me out with a set of springs in my Stylus. Being new at that time, I believe
Jim did the surgery at the contest.I don't recall where they got the
springs.

I would like to play around with the stick tension on my transmitter. The
stock springs are too soft, even when adjusted to maximum tension. I tried a
set of Radio South springs, but they are slightly too long for my Stylus and
the rate varies quite a bit from the center to the extremes.  I am reluctant
to shorten the spring by cutting off a few coils and re-bending the loop for
fear of fatiguing the metal and suffer a failure in flight.

Does anyone know of a source for these small springs?  Thanks.
