PC 3.0 FoC Question

[rich_d85]

Hi all. It's been a while since I did my last saber. I'm a little rusty and just wanted to run this by someone before I go ahead and do it.

I'm going to be installing a PC 3.0 with a B,B,W Tri-Rebel, and 7.4v Li-ion 14500 Battery Pack. The main blade colour will be via the 2 Blue die the white will be used for FoC. My question is, instead of installing a 2512 2W SMD resistor directly onto the board, am I Ok to bridge the SMT Footprint and install an external 4.7ohm 5w resistor to drive the white FoC die?

Thanks
Rich

Yes. That is perfectly acceptable.
