Hello from Seattle -

I have RICE on my Macbook Pro - it loads fine, no problems.
After plugging the micro USB into the CFX, then opening RICE, no ports are recognized.

Any suggestions?
Do I...

Thanks, FJK!

Happy Thanksgiving, and hello from waterlogged Seattle.

Lost the 2-56 Phillips Head Screws (2-56PHIL) that came with the MHSV1 Pixel Hilt Side Adapter, so I was thinking of substituting 2-56...

Understood.

Mistake it is not, then. Happy accidents they are.

Thanks, FJK, and thanks to Mr. Top, as well.
This forum is awesome.

I can't wait for my friend to make another mistake.

Thanks, FJK!
I'll give it a try and report back.

That would be awesome, FJK! :p
Above and beyond, as they say.

Here's a pic of the blob:


CFX oops

Thanks, as always, FJK.
I can always use this board as a practice piece, albeit an expensive one.

Yes, my imaginary friend makes mistakes often.
I thought I made a mistake once. But I was...

Hello from soggy Seattle.

I don't see a thread titled Asking For a Friend, so ...

This is for the Wise Ones Of the Forum.

My, er, friend accidentally bridged the Main negative pad to the...

OK, good.

That's what I seem to have gathered, possibly from your video.

Thanks again, FJK.

Thanks, FJK.

Hello from damp Seattle.

Wanted to check on wiring gauges for the CFX build.

Main Power (+) - 22 AWG;
High Power LED (4 pads) - 24 AWG;

All other pads - 28 AWG.

Is this correct?

Thanks - they worked when first posted.
I'll revise and update.

FWIW:

Just ordered these crimping pliers via Amazon to crimp the JST RCY connectors sold through TCSS.

IWISS IWS-3220M US $23.99.
Cheaper than the Engineer brand and effective.

Also been...

Thanks, Mr. Strydur -

Yes, the same resistor that you sell.
If the ends are accidentally swapped does the resistor still function as designed? Asking for a friend.

Cheers,

Hello from moldy Seattle!

Another one for the W.O.O.F.'s:

Just noticed the label on the LuxDrive 20 mA Variable Resistors indicate plus / in and minus / out legs. Never looked that closely....

Thanks, FJK! You always come through!

The leftmost section looks like the prototype acrylic discs - for the Blue tooth module - that you mentioned. Is that correct?
Mr. Finehout said they're...

Hello from soggy Seattle!

I was looking for example pics of a chassis build using a CFX, all-thread, aluminum spacers, acrylic discs, and - especially - how the wiring is routed from the sides of...

Thanks, FJK, for the help!
(The point about reflashing the board is something I wouldn't have considered ...)

Thanks jbkuma, as always, for your advice!

Hello from Seattle!

Mr. Plecter has a great test setup that I wanted to shamelessly copy (see screen capture below from imgbb).

They're from his youtube video "CFX Update Firmware."
...

Thanks, FJK. I'll look for it!

Thanks, FJK.

I'm thinking of building one as a Christmas gift for my nephew. Think they'll be ready by then?

Cheers!

Ahoy from Smoky Seattle!

Anyone recommend an internal chassis setup using a CFX and the BT909 with the breakout board?

Will an acrylic chassis disc combination work?

Thanks, as always!

Hello from Seattle!

Another question from a bright young engineer-wannabe, for the Wise Ones Of the Forum (W.O.O.F., "You have the parts, we have the smarts").
