Hi Sandeep,

i dont think u need to chk for ppm signal, if ur Tx is working then all u hav to do is locate the encoder (circuit where all stick pots r connected) and signals are feed to transmitter PCB through single or 3 wires (signal, +ve & -ve).

Generally there are two different PCBs (stick/pot PCB & Transmitter PCB) connected through wire.

u need to feed these signals to ur new 2.4 Ghz module!!!! and of course connect module to power/battery as well!!!

Look for purple/blue(+ve) wire going from main board to 72MHz module. It is at extreme left on main board as shown below.

Now locate the Signal wire. It is the white wire going from main board to the module.
