Key Considerations for Warthog Throttle
If you want a drop-in replacement, the 251B12T104A2NB (original potentiometer) is the easiest choice.
Hall effect sensors require additional electronics, since they output voltage instead of resistance. This means you may need a voltage-to-resistance conversion circuit.
Power supply differences: Hall sensors require 3.3V–5V power, while a standard potentiometer is passive.
Best Choice for Easy Replacement?
Direct Replacement: 251B12T104A2NB (Easiest, No Modifications)
Hall Effect Upgrade: P3 America ETA25PS (Longest Lifespan, but Requires Circuit Modifications)
can this be done?? that's the question
