I recently converted the left stick on my Vex Transmitter to a ratchet from spring loaded. It is extremely easy. After removing the back of the transmitter (be careful, there are wires attached to the inside of the transmitter back for channel 5 and 6 buttons) remove the two springs and the lever they are attached to. I used Futaba Throttle Ratchet part number P-RT1545 for the conversion. The ratchet spline and mounting hole for the ratchet plate are already on the gimbal.
The Futaba ratchet kit is not easy to find. I purchased a couple from Sussex Model Cener in the UK. Since it was such a small package the shipping cost was not extreme.
