Does anyone have an original Throttle Jockey "remote RPM" version? I have the "direct rpm version". I need some photos of the circuit board/unit. I am working with kurt@heliproz to try and modify mine to the remote rpm version since the both use the same PC board. I also am curious as to the part# on the main IC(computer chip).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
James

Thats a good picture....Thanks! Can you take another close-up, but of the far side of the board(away from the leads).
I think I might be able to convert mine. Do you use 100% ATV or 95% ATV (on ch.7)to enter calibration?

What about this.. Crude but might work..

There is still a smudge right where two critical foil paths meet. But from everything that I saw, my new modified setup is identical and should be functioning.....yet I still can't enter calibration....I am using a 9CHP with the governor plugged in ch. 7 and the ch.7 endpoints set to 95/95 like the modelavionics website stated.... and with the governor set to switch B, up position 100%, down 0%, I still cant get it to calibrate.......
Kurt at Heliproz still hasn't gotten back with me either....he was gunna try experimenting on his own, and find me a schematic. Maybe I should try to get in touch with Paul who originally owned the company.... :arggg:
Anyways, thanks for all your help. Let me know if you can get a close up of the far side of the board...I'm interested in the last two foil paths on the far side....
