It was the new board then.  Pics below, new board is smaller with fewer components:

KenToad:

Yep, I have the new one.  Thanks again, Tiger-Heli.

The very first set screws had a larger hex size than I had wrenches for.  In some cases I didn't have a wrench to send with the adapter.  Sorry KenToad.  :(  I think I'll add a 'tools needed' section to the site though.

I'll take a look at this. I'll probably add a picture of mine with the connector I supply since Druin's appears to assume you are using the Happ connector which is quite different.



armax:

got the package in.  Nice job!  This has to be the most versatile joystick out there.  Thanks again Floyd, this upgrade really helped eliminate the need for a modular panel and freed up some dollars for other projects.

It's my pleasure, I'm glad I'm finally able to give back to BYOAC.
