In case are

Red = +5v
Black = Gnd
White = Signal

Remember that HALL sensor use diferent pinout than pot, the middle pin (SS495A, AUAT...) are for GND wire.

Yes, this is VERY important! You will destroy your sensor if you wire +5 to the sensor output or ground.

Leave the wiring on the PCB like I have it - make the adjustment in the cable you use. You can buy a "pigtail" from Servo City.com and use a tiny screwdriver to swap the wires around to meet the actual pinout of the part, keeping the colors as Sokol1 has shown.

Well I finally was able to upload my pictures to photobucket. Needed to install latest java software. Thank you for making me aware of alternatives. Thanks Gene and Sokol for answering all my questions. It has given me a boost in confidence to tackle this project.

And now here are some pics of my first project. This is only a quick mock up of the port side instrument console of the Fw 190 simpit. I will test what you have taught me on this mock up first before I start building the real thing. I am in the process of getting all the parts to put together the Hall Sensor and I have also ordered a Leo Bodnar board. I am trying to decide whether to line up the hall sensor with the throtle lever or set it further away from the throtle. Both methods will employ Gene's type of control arm.

Happy Thanksgiving

Excellent work! That setup is practically begging for a flexible pushrod drive system. smile
