Anybody reverse the servo direction by resoldering pins 4 and 5 and find the unit inop?

Anybody find servo connector pins bent after reinserting the connector??

Nice benchwork now butchered in the belly of the plane trying to get a roll servo to work correctly, getting an understanding of the avionics tech bad attitude.

:mad:

Can these connector pins be withdrawn and reinserted in another position without soldering?

Thanks.

OK, here's the solution:

While standing on your head examining the connectors, do not mistake pins 1 and 2 for pins 4 and 5. If you re-solder those pins, you will get a bad attitude. And get used to the idea that black electrical tape looks like shrink wrap, kind of.

Thank goodness the pitch servo did not need to be reversed.

Lucas, you are off the hook.

Engineer, what was that about?
