You are going to have to open the servo and cut out the board, (now it is a 5 wire servo) and the power wires should be the same(red and black), the pot i have no idea. just experiment but it is a 2 wire pot... the power/motor is easy, the pot is hard, i have heard of the ruining a z board with the pot wires wrong.

Don't try it my way until some further info. I have done this to a micro t esc(jr sport sm22)and xmod evo board(hs-55)

Just guess and check for the pot, and if you have a Futaba, check that your servo is not made in China. I was talking to the owner of PN Racing, he had a batch of China-made Futabas that burnt up several of his Mini-Z boards. Taiwanese Futabas are good. If it's a Hitec, just guess and check because it won't do the board or the servo any harm if you get it wrong.

Okay, Its a hitech. So I have to open the servo up and pull the board out.

inside it has a green and a white wire going from the board to the motor. and also a black one grounded to the side of the motor. the brown, orange and red wires from the plug go to the board. What exactly am I contecting where. from the MR02 board to the servo.

the ground wire you cut off, it doesn't matter. white is probably positive and green negative for the motor/power, lighter colored wires are usually positive, the pot you just need to experiement.
