pistol style transmitter electronic speed control adapter.
This will allow an inexpensive airplane esc that will only with with a Stick Style transmitter to adapt to work with a Pistol style car/boat transmitter.
The challenge in using a airplane esc with a pistol style car/boat transmitter is that the signal from the esc is designed to work with a stick style transmitter. So the esc will not arm correctly when used with a pistol transmitter.
Simply plug this into your esc receiver wire and then into your receiver and it will convert the signal to work with a pistol style transmitter.
Adapter Board Measures approx. .50" x .75". Wire measures approx 3" long
Works with both Brushless and Brushed ESC's.

Eric,
What radio are you trying to use it with? Some of the newer Futaba's can be tricked by setting up the trigger menu and adjusting the EPA's so you don't need a Pistix.

Wouldn't the setup be the same ?
It's just basically signal right ??
Proportional 0-100%..?

I know zero about the Spektrum radios, but assume Spektrum may have something similar. What I do for Futaba radios is set the trigger mode to 70/30, set the sub trim to B100 and the main trim to B40. This basically moves the neutral trigger setting to a pulse width close a stick throttle at low setting. If you have a 100/0 trigger mode you can eliminate the subtrim setting modifications.

Be careful to keep the Pistix dry. I have used them several times successfully then over a period of time of using, I have put them away wet and did not work aftwards.
