Prizm swing

[alcadude]

I have a prizm installed in a hilt and it's not triggering swing sound
I have changed the parameter like the manual said form 70 to 60 (A big difference)and it only triggers if you swing the saber very hard!Please help
(Do I need a chassis? The prizm is currently not connected to a chassis.If so how would I make a diy chassis?

If the board is just free-floating in the saber, you will have difficulty getting it adjusted properly. You need some form of chassis.

The easiest material to build a chassis with is PVC pipe or electrical conduit. You can find some that fits inside your hilt (may need some sanding), and then cut out slots in it to allow it to hold your board and batteries.

Thanks for the help

Do you have any pics for what a chassis looks like?:)

That helps but how would I make one specifically for prizm?I don't completely understand how to design and make one.

A big part of this hobby is doing research and learning on your own. Try the search bar. There are numerous threads about chassis, whether custom or built using the components from the store. There are also videos you can watch.

May be you could find a soloution with the chassis discs available in store http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/Chassis-Parts-C74.aspx
Alternatively, you can find many pre designed 3D chassis with a quick search of the net. I won't link in case it breaches rules but I believe you can choose which suits your build and have it printed.

The point of the chassis is to have something inside your hilt that holds all your electronics securely. Whatever you can create, that will fit inside your hilt, and you can secure your electronics to, will do the job. bonus points if you make it out of nonconductive material so you don't get short circuits.

You can go the DIY route and design your own out of PVC (or other materials), you can get the chassis parts from TCSS, or you can look on one of the 3d-printing sites for premade chassis setups. There's not a one-size-fits-all approach that applies to a saber chassis. Every saber is different. You'll need to work some of it out on your own.
