Maybe Andy can answer this. I just got some aimtracks in the mail, and the new boards have a 5 pin connector instead of the solder points. Since I am new to soldering, I was wondering what kind of connector to use to connect to these pins, that way I can avoid soldering to the board. Thanks! |

WOW! The new boards don't have to be soldered? No more soldering for extra buttons? That makes me want to go back and buy more. Sure I got them connected but I fubbed up several solder points on the board before getting 2 xtra. Is This the new Standard? In other words if I ordered another today is there a guarantee it will be a solder-less board? |

The original intention was to support only the trigger and aux buttons which is why they are on the large connector, but I did mention the other solder points in the docs. The connector was not planned to be fitted until we have complete guns on sale but I brought this forward and we now fit it on all the modules. |

I found the connectors from newark here in the states. 4 cents a piece. Now I just need to figure out how to connect the wires to them :) |
