<DIV>Bob, thanks for the input. Replacement is the way I am leaning, but
probably will send it all to Tony and see what he finds.</DIV>
<DIV>Thanks</DIV>

<DIV>Jerry,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Channel 04? That is a ham frequency, is it not? If so, then you
will need more than a crystal change to put it in the 72MHz band.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The 4 pin connectors are Multicons. As long as the servos only have
3 wires, then you could probably get them to work with modern stuff
(just make sure the logic level is compatible). I agree, is probably
better to splice in new connectors. And servos that old, I would at
least send them in for service. The lubricant in the feedback pots
could have dried out, and the wiring could have become brittle.
Personally, I would lean towards installing new servos, at least on
elevator and ailerons.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>(And, yes, I am old enough to remember 4 wire servos. But I am NOT
as old as RVP). :-)</DIV>
