Correct.  Happ carries a variety of STUN Runner-style handles/handle parts which makes it easy to mod/revert that type of yoke.

I have a mount that was made for Hydra, and it looks like that yoke would be what it was designed for. I cut it up a bit to make a Star Wars yoke, but it was definitely designed for this type of yoke.

Here is a S.T.U.N Runner yoke.

Odd design.    Might be from Tatsumi.

 Actually.. there IS gearing on the vertical axis - via a sliding lever setup.

 However, the horizontal axis, seems to be direct drive... though, I cant see clearly / and at the needed angles, to confirm 100%.

Thank you all very much for the warm welcome and input.

PL1, I did see the thread where Ken mentioned the Honeywell pots as a reasonably priced alternative.  He also advised they would require some filing to flatten the shaft.  I will try to get my hands on an analog meter.

Le Chuck, I forgot to mention in my original post, but the seller did state that there were "delay problems" on his set up which was why he was selling it.  I can turn the yoke almost 90 degrees, but I do not know the exact degree of rotation.  It does center and after checking again all I can find is one spring for the X axis.  I will try to get a wiring diagram together in the next few days.  You mention using a UHID, but I have an APAC will that suffice? The pots in there now are the Allen Bradley eja1n048f502m type ej model.  I am considering purchasing two of these:

I have done alot of poking around and found a video on youtube posted by Sean Newton which looks exactly like the setup my yoke came from.  Additionally, the seller I bought this from is from the same area as Sean.  According to the video Sean used the Dual Sidewinder hack.  Here is a link to the video:
 

I really appreciate the help everyone!
