You're supposed to brag that they are!

Regardless they look nice, curious to see how they hold up over time

^yea haven't read any review for them but I thought I'll be the guinea pig.

coolvans1988 · 03-28-2014, 08:48 PM

Nothing, my Z still getting repaired... been a long month.

Today I disassembled my entire radio control panel and desoldered and rebuilt my On/Off/Volume control. A few weeks ago, the Push-Push button click died (radio would not turn on or off). So, I could get it to come on by pushing the "mode" button, but it just aggravated the h3ll out of me being broken. Well it turns out that the "clicker" for lack of a better word had to be rebuilt from another potentiometer assembly. I got it all back together and it works, thank goodness! The parts aren't an exact fit but it gets the job done. If I could I'd just buy another radio and scavenge the parts off of it, since all 4 of the potentiometers are the same anyway. Whew, it was nerve wracking getting those SMT parts off the board without damaging the part or the PCBA.

Did I mention I had to undo about 30 screws to get the PCBA off of the plastic faceplate!

I had an epic failure in the Cuny tablet install. Those DIY pictures are going in the trash. I didn't cause any major damage, but I lost some serious relationship points spending 5 hours in the garage. I'll have to wait for a "girls weekend" and try again.

sorry to hear bk. i hate it when things dont go according to plan or missing parts (due to poor quality control by manufacturer AND vendor) or something real dumb that messes up my schedule. hope you find some time for 2nd attempt.

kenchan · 03-29-2014, 10:09 AM
