The only problem with re-wiring pot's is to ensure that the wires go to the correct terminals, otherwise the magic smoke may well escape... :(

The only really important part is to ensure that the signal wire that goes to the wiper of the pot' (usually the middle terminal) gets moved to the wiper terminal on the new pot'. Then the power and 0V wires will have to go to opposite ends of the pot' and no smoke-related problems. :)

If you find that the control works backwards, either swap the power and 0V wires over, or just flip the servo reverse switch.

I thought that might be the case, just worried the TX will go up in smoke before I get the chance to flip a switch :P
