ImmersionRC PowerPlay Slim Case

thingiverse

This is a modification to remove the batteries from the ImmersionRC PowerPlay and run the unit via an external power source. The JST male connector fits into the slot where the original barrel connector as located at. This modification will remove the controlled output power of the original unit and only allow for input power via the JST connector. **This mod should be done at your own risk. I will not assume responsibility if this was done incorrectly by the user. PLA and TPU can both be used for this print. Excuse the low quality prints in the photos. _______________________________________________________________________ Operations: 1. Open PowerPlay case by removing the four screws. 2. Desolder the 2 battery tabs. This will free the PWB from the battery bay. 3. Desolder the barrel connector from the PWB. Do so carefully as the plated through holes can be damaged from improper removal. 4. Solder a JST Male connector to the points where the battery bay was soldered. Take care to measure the wires for the correct length. The wires will need to be routed as shown in the photos. The polarity can also be see on the top side of the PWB if further clarification is required. 5. Assemble the unit with the new back plate. Be careful not to pinch the wires. Pressure should hold the JST connector inside the unit but if it is too loose, adhesive can be applied to better secure it.
