I really want to enter the mod off but i know i wont have enough time to finish my build between work and ordering my parts. I will post my finished product under bragging rights. Im going to build a external chip holder under the guide button using a 8 pin chip socket then im going to build an internal chip programmer that will work with pickit2 with a usb port in the controller shell. i will wire it to the #2 led so when u plug the usb drive in the led will light up show the pickit on. then im going to have 2 tact switches hooked to spdt switches and a spdt switch for the mod chip. the 3 switches functions will be switching from mod chips that are ether operated by stealth or tactical and the other two will function as turning mods on off then switched to a mimic dropshot and mimic jumpshot. I plan to have the chips operate on the topfire opensourse, hazers rapidfire rf and robbow 3 mode rf and jitter. Say im using topfire that operates by using two tactical switches, i will be able to choose the settings i want then hit the spdt switches that will de activate the mode setting then change the tact switches to work as a mimic dropshot or jumpshot on my two tact buttons. then i will be able to go to my computer and open my pickit 2 program and re program my chip to another opensourse code. the 3rd spdt switch will change the pin settings to work on a stealth setup or back to a tact setup. I found a real small pic programmer and a usb adapter that hooks to the iscp on the programmer that supports pickit 2. it will be a real tight squeeze but i think i can make it work. the 8 pin socket, i will wire to the programmer and all of the pin-outs on the controller board with all the resistors diods and spdt switch. In the end i hope to accomplish a controller were u can take a 8 pin mod chip and just set it in the top of the controller and play then when I get board ill walk to my computer and load another hex file onto that chip. I know its kinda dumb cause now days u can get chips like the ragnarok and program them easy but i just want to see if its possible to do all of this.

your going to have some major issues here. Please keep us posted. just a question though, if yhe chip is easily swapable, why attempt to enbed the programmer.

I strongly recomend installing a ragnarock or legacy viking. You will be much happier with the usefulness of the mod if you do.

FYI I encourage people to think outside the box, and I compiled the best opensource list I posibly could, but I still recomend the viking over any other mod chip or combination of. The ragnarok has features none of the others do or can be replicated without writing code yourself.

ya i have two ragnarok controllers i just wanted to push myself and see what i could come up with. its more about me trying to do something i havent seen anyone else do. these opensourse codes i really dont have any need for i just wanted to do something different then anyone else. i was looking at the older mod offs and seen people doing coustom shells, led mods and internal rechargeable battery mods for there leds but what i wanted to go for was a controller that u just set almost any 8 pin chip in and play on the fly and have the option to be able to re program the chip in the controller and roll on. I know its totally outdated and mods now are easy to re-program i just wanted to do something completely out of the box thinking, something that separates my mod in a different category.
