update :

fitted vinyl to control panel today. then attached it to the cab.
now the joysticks and buttons dont work :(
checked wiring 5 times to be sure. i most definately have a faulty u-hid board . ive ordered another board off
ultimarc website , but ive no idea how long its going to take for it to reach me . it says 3 days on the site but i doubt it.

anyways, just a heads up .

Don't doubt it...Andy ships faster than anyone in the arcade industry and that is a fact. Even though he is in the UK I have had stuff that I ordered early in the morning arrive the next day to Canada...no im not kidding ;)

3 days is actually a comfortable Ultimarc average.  Also, have you tried contacting Andy directly about the board? It may not be faulty...

thanks for the info , its great to hear such positive feedback for a webstore  :applaud:

but as for the board is deffo faulty  :cry:. i even tried it on my pc upstairs ( which i use to test mame , maximus arcade , etc etc ) and it just doesnt work.

i originally got it from gremlin solutions in the uk , but to be on the safe side , i ordered and paid for a new board from
ultimarc as i really needed a replacement asap and i couldnt take the chance of waiting for ages in doing an rma with gremlin.
( it was late in the night when i panicked and i decided to be on the safe side and order a spare , just in case , lol  ;D )

but i was pleasantly surprised when i found an email this morning in my inbox from gremlin solutions telling me to send back the board for a replacement and they
would ship a new one straight away . so im really happy about that. even though i'll have 2 mini-pacs , at least i'll have a spare should i get another unexpected fault
or even , more likely , if i build another cab later down the line  :lol

ragnar:
Awesome videos.  It gives me the confidence that I can do this!
