Recoil Kit now available for Aimtrak Gun
rcosner:
As someone who has purchased both the Aimtak gun and Recoil Kit, I can say with confidence that a pre-assembled option is would be preferable. I am looking at this mess of miniature wires asking myself if it is worth risking $95 of working gun in order to install this $40 recoil kit, which will likely also be a casualty in this endeavor.
At the same time, there really is no option, you have to have the recoil. Not having it would just be lame.
I figure I have about a 50% chance of coming out of this with a working gun. I'de rather have the option of paying say $200 and just knowing its going to work.

Pay someone to solder the 4 wires?
To be honest i think anyone should be able to do this with a 98% success rate
But if you took it to a tv repair and handed them a diagram they would do it in 2 minutes and charge you say $15
PL1:
If you're not comfortable with your level of soldering skill, read this thread, watch a few tutorials on YouTube, and practice on some junk electronics similar to what you'll be soldering for the mod.
You'll be up-to-speed in no time. :cheers:

just double check your amp rating.
Sure 3amp would be fine.
