555 timer rf mod problem
« on: October 22, 2011, 12:07:09 AM »
i used the mod from   modded matt   https://www.acidmods.com/forum/index.php/topic,25338.0.html

but i took out the npn switching transistor and the on off switch and ran it to a momentary switch instead to have the rf on the switch instead of the trigger

i also ran another wire from pin 3 connected it to a momentary switch and to the middle pin of the left trigger

the problem im having is that when i turn the controller on it turns directly off as if the mod was pulling too much power from the controller but when i plug it in to the plug and play it does the same thing so i dont know

not sure what im doing wrong :beg: :help:

any help would be appreciated

yes i know this is a really old mod and yes i know a pic is better but im bored and waiting for my pic12f683 to come in the mail

i really want hazers flex mod but until i get my pics i cant program it so i wanted to pass the time with a few things i have never done before   

maybe this is because this is the cg2 controller ?

I believe you probably have a short circuit in your wiring somewhere..

what does that mean? should be one wire from pin 3 to your momentary switch, then one wire from the switch to the center trigger pin.

sounds like a short
