1. Can I simply buy the 'right' hall sensor and wire it in in place of the pot or 2. Does it need some kind of interface/driver?

If the answer to question 1 is Yes, where do I get the sensors and magnets?
If the answer to question 2 is Yes, well I guess that's a dead idea

Yeah me too.. but I am too lazy to do the hard work.. that's why I like the X-52.. it is so modular. On the X-45 I had to do a lot of splicing and soldering.. But nothing like some of the stuff Sokol was doing.. Hey Sokol I found some of those pics on an older drive from some of those X-45 mods you were showing a few years back..

Question:
I assume I need diametric Magnets

with North South polarity across the face, not North on one face and South on the other?
Only problem is they are 6mm but they may not be too large.

The Face-Face polarity magnets can be got in 4mm:

Also if it helps anyone else I found the Leo Bodnar site fopr the sensors
