If you want it to be proportional, and be controlled from the radio, you need to leave the PCB in.

If you just yanked it out, leaving only the motor and gearset, then all you have now is basically a gear motor. You'll need to wire the motor to a speed control to run it off the radio.

Check out this thread for how to mod a servo for continious rotation.
