How to make a Rapid Fire Controller

[punkskater2448]

That could be it. When I had the rubber messed up every time I would hit buttons random things would happen. I suggest opening your controller and ensuring that the rubber is in the correct position.....thats what she said.

alrite, thanks i will do that later tonight. also is there suppose to be like a split second delay when u push the button for your weapon to fire...thats what happens to mine, unless i just have a badd quality button.

so in my controller i got the CG Board
the parts i would need are:

Solder Iron (Got That)
Lead Free Solder Wire
Insulated Wire ( 30 AWG)
Tact Switches 7mm
RapidFire Dual Triggers Chip

I was looking at that stuff on acidsmods.com

[mrwickedd]

that's my next step, I'm gonna try one with the chip, the matrix styles one, the scariest part for me was soldering to the led =\ lol, also any one know any good brands of small soldering irons, something thats really thin. that would be real helpful.

Weller 40 Watt Soldering Kit - SP40LK at The Home Depot

I use that for all sorts of things, small electronics, guitar wiring etc.. It works well and is easier when I don't want to bring out the bigger one.

I was talking to a friend that bought a chip for his controller, and then he made it so the switch is on the Xbox 360 locater button. How would this work?

When you turn on the wireless search , the power goes on to the board from that switch, and you take that power to power the chip.

Great tut btw, makes it look pretty easy

Just take a small flat head screw driver and break the security thing off (little metal thing in the middle of the screw).

And if you can't manage to break them off, you can get one of these eBay Motors: Bondhus TR9 Torx Security T9 Wrench 32409 (item 280277736595 end time Nov-16-08 06:59:14 PST)

I am trying to this right now and the solder points for ground will not melt at all, I had my iron on there for like 5 mins and won't melt, anything, any suggestions besides maybe I need a new Solder iron tip?

[David5534]

Try using solder?

Already tried, hot solder won't connect to the cold solder

[David5534]

What? Just put the wire on the metal ground then put some solder there and touch it with the soldering iron.

Ya I know, I have done soldering before, I think that the tip of the iron is so bad that its not transfuring enough heat to melt the solder, >>>>

[David5534]

Sorry, i thought you were trying to melt the ground point on the controller. Try just putting the tip on some solder and see if it melts.

[awsomness]

just wondering do you need to program the chip if you have a new controller?
if so how do you program it?

[walapu]

I have noticed something very funny. When the controller is off and u push the button the light turns on but very dim.

Is there any way to not connect it to the light because it has to be controller 1 for it to work for me. Am I doing anything wrong?
