No chip old matrix question
« on: September 19, 2008, 10:24:35 AM »
Hey guys, my retard cousin made a rapid mod on the old matrix controller. He didnt use a chip just the tac and 2 wires. So he was all excited, I played with him for a while and then he said the rapid just stopped working. So he brought it to me and I checked his soldering points and suck didnt find any problem. Do you think he probably burnt something? Let me know! Just some food for thought! Holla! :drunk:

one of two things happened here.  one is that this mod is very dependent on the charge of your batteries.  It only works well on medium charge on batteries.  The second is most of these pushbuttons that are used are junk, a small percentage of them fail early and need to be changed out.  Use a meter and check the button function, and realize that the battery charge has an effect on the RF function, so depending on what it is, it will be finnicky
