Which controllers does this work on? CG, Matrix, both?
so does this work on the matrix?
The point of the transister is to have rapid fire on a triger not the switch .. so when the trigger is pull it rapid fires ..just like the Pic 12F683 Rapid fire on Trigger..I don'r get this do part----------------------------radio shack #TLC 555 timer-------------------276-17181.0uf tantalum capacitor--------272-14340.1uf ceramic disc capacitor----272-1351K resistor(x2)---------------------271-1321100k potomitor / trimmer----------271-284ICPC board----------------------276-284npn switching transistor--------276-1617on/off spst toggle switch-------275-32730 gage wireBuy all this is way more than just buying a dual rapidfire kit from the store for $12.99 ????
Oh, I didn't use transistors on mine and it worked okay... maybe I just screwed it up and it worked lol
if i bought them all at radioshack it would cost me about $60 for four controllers.
FOR THE RECORD1. this mod is for Rapid fire on your trigger, in order to create rapid fire on your triggers, you MUST use the transistor. 2. the switch is to turn the mod off and on.3. this mod works on matrix and cg, with no alterations4. it is cheaper, easier, and faster to install rapid fire if you go to the acid mods shop and buy a kit from there. but for the do it your selfer, this works very well
Ah nifty. And for clarification (I just went to Radioshack) the product number you gave or the transistor (276-1617) lead me to a bundle of 15. There's 3 different (5 of each) transistors to choose from; 2N2222, 2N3904, and some 2N4401's. Which one works the best, and do they affect the oscillation rate enough to effect the potentiometer?
hey matt how many pulses does this vary between?and do you recomend switching the output like you show in the diagram or switching the voltage surply? because otherwise the 555 is running constantly?
thanks for the tut. i have a question, my local radioshack didnt have the timer or transistors, so i got a 555cn ic timer and a mps2222a npn transistor. will these work? thanks in advance.
kicks please dont direct people to change this mod on this board. do what you like with it elsewhere. I spent alot of time building, testing, and developing a tut for this. taylor, your math is incorrect, some peices you must buy in two or five packs, so the first one will cost $17.34, for a second add 4.77, for a third add 8.76, and for a fourth add another 4.17 so for four controllers the total radio shack cost is $35.04!!!!

i can do each controller by going through mouser for about $5 or $6 going through mouser, including shipping
I dont have a scope to measure the squarewave but I would guess somewhere from 2-50 as far as switching the voltage/output, it dont matter the switches I use are under rated to switch the power. the power is upward of 3v and the output is 1.3v. I have a feeling you are worried about power drain, and it is not an issue, we are now talking milliamps of power consumption. you will never notice a difference unless you were stress testing a modded agianst a nonmoded controller, and the difference would be minimal. look at anyother mod out there and there are NONE that kill power to the chip, they just deactivate it as I have done.
WOW, that is great, $5 bucks. Very nice...Me likes...LOL
Okay so I made my own circuit for this awesome mod and it's all done. It looks like garabage because i resoldered the whole circuit because I had a mistake I couldn't locate. Here it is:http://imodmuch.googlepages.com/IMG_0632.JPGhttp://imodmuch.googlepages.com/IMG_0633.JPGhttp://imodmuch.googlepages.com/IMG_0636.JPGhttp://imodmuch.googlepages.com/IMG_0637.JPGI had to click the axel on the motor and puck back the weight to cram the board in. Again, it's not pretty, but it's functional. And i hop to never open this controller again.Note: I used a momentary switch instead of an on/off switch. I did this trying to make a rapid fire button, but as it turns out, i have to hold the switch down an pull the trigger to activate rapid fire. Witches on Left4Dead are a breeze to kill now!
how would you rig up rapid fire on both triggers with this?
i might try wiring both triggers to the same wire then
just make sure to think through what you want to do, I would want to turn them off independantly, so when I am on cod or something, its not rapid aim and rapid fire. I will test when I get home tonight to see how this works. like I said I am not very comfortable with using the same chip/output for both triggers. I could be over thinking though.
