Rapid fire w/ 555 timer.. NOT X-S rf tut

[aditya]

I got this one working, but does anyone know where to put the pot on this one?  That one guy says you can do it, and I'd like to turn up the speed cuz right now the speed of the needler and plasma rifle and all that stuff is the same.  Just better accuracy.

IN HALO u cant speed up the shooting ( i dont think) only make the accuracy better only one u can speed up the shooting is in cod4 and thats what these rapidfires were made for but for halo its ment for accuracy only thing that is rapidfire is the turret starting up faster then normal... thats all that is in halo..

Uhm...no. You're wrong. Ask KingMike, he got rapidfire working (faster shooting) in halo3

really? im thinking im gona do this tomarrow on one controller, and then go with mikes chip on another controller...but im very interested in variable speed with a pot... can someone elaborate on this, and maybe include a diagram for reference as i am easily confused

I've made 555 timers before, but would this work on any wireless controller? No old/new board styles or anything.

yeah i think so... but im going to radioshach today to buy the stuff for this, does anybody have a clear diagram or picture of where the wires from the chip go on the controller? i can kinda see from the picture but its really unclear

[mikerzt]

it would be nice if there was a diagram too. those pictures are nice but i'd like to see where each is going to.

go to silly nuts's topic on page 4 there are some clear pictures. they helped me make mine :P

Hi All
I have tried building the dual version and it didnt work for me....Well it did and it didnt lol. When i pressed the right rapid fire button i got nothing but when i touched the metal case of my switch it did work....It seemed i had 2 live feeds going into the switch. It was probably something i did wrong because im really new to this electronics thing.......
Ok.
So i moved on for an easier version and found this thread.
I just have one question. "Does the + of the .1 capacitor go to number 1 or number 2 of the 555 timer.
Many thanks.
