Last night i noticed that my car wasnt returning to a dead stick, after a close inspection ive found 2 parts snapped inside on the throttle. Although ive kinda fixed it for now. i would prefer to have the parts replaced.

Does anyone know where i can get the bits. its gunna be the stick assembly, and a small eclip type piece that helps the stick attach to the pot.

Any help is much appreciated

I had the same problem with the steering pot a few years ago on the Esprit 3,i sacked it off and went back to my Type R.Did you have any joy getting it fixed by Derek Bailey? Or has anyone got his number?

i think UK distributors for KO are RC disco and i believe derek does warranty repairs for them they may be able to help you with out of warranty gear

hope this helps

Derek's contact info used to be on Disco's web page somewhere.

Sadly, this radio has been out of production for quite some time, and KO Japan haven't had many of the spares for quite some time as well - so it's hit and miss if you can get them repaired now. I broke some plastic parts in mine nearly 2 years ago and it wasn't possible to get bits then.
