If you are happy with the Ace Edge then sell the FLY 9 as, quite frankly, it's an expensive stick to have as a 'back-up'. I wouldn't remove the battery housing but try re-routing the wires to the potentiometer from the opposite direction. Remove the glue on one side of the potentiometer and run the wires along the edge of the potentiometer now free of glue and, holding the wires next to the side of the potentiometer just drop a small amount of hot melt glue to hold them in place. You might need to lengthen the pot wires - waggle the yoke around and check that the wires have enough slack to move freely.
You may find that removing the battery housing will affect any future sale but if you are intent on keeping it (and fed up with changing batteries) then I guess you could carefully hack the housing away. Problem is that 3V adaptors are not very common. I removed the housing on mine but only because I installed an AV8R PCB (which is USB powered) and the battery compartment was not needed.
