This is from one of the Black controllers that came with the PnC Kit, be dumping that thing later on. I just had a Black controller apart the other day and it was still the old version,so not sure if only these are sporting the new design, or if it's something they all will be going to in the future. My guess is before long these will be turning up in all of the newer Wireless controllers since it pretty much dumps everything into just one IC. The battery has the same info on it as a regular PnC battery, so nothing different there so far, have to do a couple of charges with this new controller and compare that to see if anything different is being stored there. Ya can read more on the PnC battery Pack HERE to understand more of what all that was about.  I'll be tracing this new bad boy out as well, like I did with the Wired and Wireless before it as soon as I get some time to. OLD 'MATRIX' VERSION TOP NEW 'CG' VERSION TOP OLD 'MATRIX' VERSION BOTTOM NEW 'CG' VERSION BOTTOM EDIT: First glance over this thing and it appears to be a common ground controller now, barf, though it will make for some other controller modifications I've been pondering easier.

I am so confused, i have an old controller that this mod worked on. I have 2 new controller that I want to mod but using that mod does not work, i have read several articles from RDC but I am totally confused. I looked at this drawing, but not the mod does nothing, the switch wont even fire. Can anyone tell me where to hook up the transister, and what is RT1, 2, and 3? I know that they are the lil solder points on the right side, but in what order are they from top to bottom? 1 2 3 ?? Any help would be appreciated. |
