Hi everyone,
a few years I built several gameboy pi handhelds. This time I'm building a nice one for myself using the Freeplay CM3 mobo and the Boxy aluminium shell. Looks fantastic.
My question is I know I can wire L2 & R2 into the existing pinouts from the MOBO has anyone tried integrating the L2 and R2 buttons into the L1 & R1 shoulder buttons to save the nice case. I would imagine I will need a tactile button and some very fine wire.
What gauge can you work with easily it needs to be flexible? I need some for my GCW Zero too after replacing the LCD I managed to pull both sets of wires off for the shoulder buttons on that.
My plan was to modify the cheapo L1 & R1 buttons and place the tactile button near the hinge point poking through the shoulder button. Does anyone have a 3d model for the shoulder buttons please?
Thanks in advance
Garry
