Led desoldering job

[Ghost In Black]

Nice Ghost In Black like the controller.
When you did it did you just solder them on or did u kno wat is positive and the negative end of the LED cuz i dnt i been told i believe on this forum u have to have it right from wat i heard...

Yes it matters very much which way you put them. I looked at a chart (somewhere on these forums.)
I think you just got really lucky.

just turn the controller on and press the leds on the board to see which way there supposed to go on

There should be a mark on the back of the 0603. The side it's closest to is the +.

I just finished up an rf board and controller for a friend today. His controller is the bottom left one.



I ordered ultraviolet 0603s today. I'm going to do my Elite and controller. I'm a blue guy, but my wife likes purple, so I figured I do it for her.

It's the SAME thing as everything else. Desolder the leds and solder new ones on.

It's not hard. You just need the right tools.

its really not that hard like look at some you tube videos on how to do it and if u need some help im cuz i done couple times..
But when u get to the back on snapping of the case be very careful use a flat tip and press down...

It's nice if you want your rf board red, because then you don't have to replace the right angle smds, just the power button. For the outer ring, I just reversed the colors so the red shows the controllers and the green shows errors.

But even if you do want something other than red, it's not bad. It's not as easy as the controller, but with patience a first timer can handle it.

For removing smds, I don't try to desolder them with a wick. I just flood it with solder and it floats off.

Cool you should make a tut on this if no one else has done it on here.
Also for lighting up of the buttons how did you do that like what points did you use and wat resistors you kno...
