The Channel Do Not Work Properly :(

What does it do?



BTW you don't need to capitalize every word in a sentence, usually just the first word (but do capitalize names, titles, and 'I').

Dictionary.com: What are the rules for capitalization? (http://dictionary.reference.com/help/faq/language/c/capitalization.html)

[gerardo]

The potentiometer that I connect will do nothing, but if you connect two of the cables together it will make the servo to move in a erratic way.

I didn't capitalize all the words, I'm very lazy for that, it may be either may computer, or I was writing all the time with the caps on, I dont know.

You may have up to three (3) additional channels depending on the chip. I know how to do the mod. Planning to do my own TX soon.

Gerardo,

Yes, it is possible and works, the only thing that you have to do is to put a resistor of 1Kohms in the center position of the potenciometer.
