If I plug the Elmod Volume Control Unit into a non Elmod control Board and the Futaba connection into a free channel in a Receiver will the rotary or slide control on my Transmitter work or must I buy an Elmod Board?

It should work, yes. I think Kevin from RC tanks australia or Tankbear were selling similar devices too.

Yes, Kevin had a remote volume control, he called it the Viper. I have several and they work great.

Can't remember the name of Ian's unit, but it was also good.

I already have a couple of "Viper's" (Ian was selling Kevins stock) and they are great units although the soldering of the wires could do with reinforcing ,
I was just wondering if Elmods unit was similarly flexible.
