I scrapped a couple of those. Likely a cover somewhere. It will be a long 6 weeks though, before back home from work to look.

Thanks for the reply David, hopefully one will show up somewhere. Just getting back into RC after about 20 years, Time flies !!

I have several older Futaba transmitters, including a T5UAF, (not sure if compatible) that is module based and has a flip up cover with ATV/DR pots and reversing switches on the front. This is NOT the newer 1024 UAP labeled version.

Only pic I could find quickly:

Can you measure width and height and post a pic of the transmitter back side?

Mine is actually a Skysport 4. 8 batteries in a row flat.
Door size approx 122cmx54cm

Thanks

O/K. Mine is slightly smaller with a curved bottom so likely would not fit.

Have you considered replacing your current system with newer 2.4 ? Reason I ask is that those radios ( not brand specific) have circuitry in them that can go out of tune between the transmitter and receiver . Yes they may work but the range can be affected ( shortened) .
And then being that old , the batteries may need replacing ....just not worth the effort and money.

Eventually I will upgrade, just flying trainers on my farm for now. Will use them for boats in the pond some day.
Thanks for the advice

I just came across your post, did you find a cover? I have a skyport 4 with a battery pack.

I've got a couple of the Skysport 4 transmitters that only get used for buddy boxes with the older Futaba radios. I can send you a cover from one of these. Is your transmitter black or silver?
Note - also have an Attack 4, but that has a different cover.
You can PM me address details, but you should also send a pic of the transmitter, so I know I've got the same version.
