[NSRCA-discussion] jr ds8711 servo

I remember how much fun it was trying to get those tiny carbon buttons to stay in the wiper long enough to get the pot put back together.  My fingers were just to big for that kind of work.....  ;-)

My Dad still has a bunch of Giesendanner pots in a drawer.  You could go from 25 flights between changing pots to 50-75 flights!  
 
BTW Ron, since I still can't seem to get an email to you other than this way, I won't be flying in the contest this weekend.  My Dad and I will probably drive down for awhile on Saturday.

But then you could import and install the Giezendanner pot system and extend pot 
life.

started with heath kit variants of the Kraft K-15 servo (and yes, I built them 
all).  The were slow, but hard to use.  Had to re-solder the motor wires to 
reverse direction back then.

up for its lack of torque by being slow too.
