In your case it sounds like the leaking fuel is the culprit.<br>
<br>
Having said that, one of the key diagnostics for bad pots in Futaba
transmitters is a trim or centering change when changing conditions or
switching dual rates. This assumes that you are not programmed to allow
different trims in different conditions.<br>
<br>
It really is a good idea to send your radio in once a year, or no more than
every couple of years. I see so many posts of problems that start with "My
radio has performed flawlessly for 8 years now..." Then you find out that
the thing has never once been serviced. Not servicing the radio is like driving
without ever changing your oil. Neither is a good idea.<br>
