thats shexy!

Why did they not include a chrome battery compartment?

Where did you put your programming port?
Title: Re: Viking360 Controller w/Custom XCM Case!
Post by: Ben. on June 10, 2010, 12:39:34 PM
Well It was a full chrome shell, but I don't like the feel of the chrome on the back so used a standard MS black back. The battery compartment is a silver rather than a chrome and I have no idea why! haaa

I modded the PnC port rather than adding a 3.5mm programming port :)

That is really sick, nicely done the joysticks are extremely nice so do you have to use a diffrent type of cord for this? Im not sure which port you mean.

PnC - Play 'n' Charge

So you can just use your play n charge cable to plug it into your PC and change presets/drivers..

Are the analog sticks rubbery or hard plastic?

I would like to know where you got those thumbsticks.

Dang dude, that's nice!
I want to install a viking mod on my controller, but I'm not sure how to "expose the trace" How the  :censored: did u do that???
Title: Re: Viking360 Controller w/Custom XCM Case!
Post by: Squeck on June 18, 2010, 02:44:26 PM
You can scrape the trace with a xacto knife, then you apply a little amount of flux and you are ready to solder your wires :)
Title: Re: Viking360 Controller w/Custom XCM Case!
Post by: mechgamer123 on June 20, 2010, 06:40:10 PM
what exactly does flux do?
Title: Re: Viking360 Controller w/Custom XCM Case!
Post by: phenoptix on June 21, 2010, 09:18:48 AM
Hey Ben! Nice controller, not too sure about the tablecloth though!!

Flux helps the solder flow. You can get solder with a flux core, and you can also flux the areas you want to solder so the solder flows onto (and into) them more easily. Basically it reduces the surface tension of the solder making it behave more like a fluid. It does other things but that's the important one.

Ben points N,L, and K, those r right next to the chip on the back, do u solder to those or is there another point u can use instead of that?
Title: Re: Viking360 Controller w/Custom XCM Case!
Post by: Ben. on June 23, 2010, 11:48:14 PM
I didn't like soldering them to the points next to the chip, I got too many problems so I found some alternative points on the top of the board :)

Ben points N,L,E,and K, and the D+ and  the D- ones, dont hav to draw those out but are those mandatory points or only if u do pnc?
Title: Re: Viking360 Controller w/Custom XCM Case!
Post by: Ben. on June 24, 2010, 01:20:57 PM
D+ and D- are needed for you to program the chip, which you need to do once it is installed as it has no preset loaded onto it before installation. You need them to go either to a 3.5mm Jack or to the Pnc port.

Is this for a Duo or Raven?

Ben howcome the guide has l and k right next to the chip and not on the leds, thats wierd cuz i would hav thought it would have shown it to be on the leds in the beginning, and if i wired something rong the first time is there a possibility the chip is fried, like hav u wired something worong b4?

Well Einar (Guy who runs Viking360) decided to do the pinout like that, the points I have shown you there are 100% fine to use :)
Title: Re: Viking360 Controller w/Custom XCM Case!
Post by: Thejld on June 24, 2010, 01:55:54 PM
Yea ik, do they hav to be on the bottom of the led, and if i wired something wrong, would the chip fry?
Title: Re: Viking360 Controller w/Custom XCM Case!
Post by: Ben. on June 24, 2010, 01:58:04 PM
It wouldn't fry, the bottom of the LED is the positive side, and that's the side it needs to be on to supply power through the LED, it will just not work on if you wired it to the top.
Title: Re: Viking360 Controller w/Custom XCM Case!
