Hello all,
First post here. I know certain things and companies are not discussed here but I have a question and a small amount of background is essential. I made the (now apparently obvious) mistake of participating in a certain crowdfunding saber campaign and waited an age for 2 sabers. One failed to work at all out of the box and the other has failed after being turned on and off about 30 times and no duelling. I have since discovered that quality control is an issue and while I bitterly regret what I did it has driven me to decide to fix these on my own and start building further sabers on my own which I'm not unhappy about.
I understand that these sabers are not MHS compatible and I plan to order the basic parts listed under the noobs getting started thread and build a basic saber. What I wanted to know is whether the switches, LED's, chassis', soundcards and speakers sold via TCSS could be made to fit into the hilts that I now have which are basically useless?
I'm really hoping this can be done so that I can salvage 2 hilts that I quite like once I have started soldering and have built a basic saber or 2.
Any advice appreciated.
Cheers,
D
