Hey man, nice to see you here!.
I'm using 2s1p configuration which gives me 8.4 to 6.4v that's plenty to power everything. I'm getting 1 hour of play time on batteries, which is what I wanted.
I should've used other type of batteries, but that's what I had lying around... Maybe next...
Hello everyone. I have a big update :awesome:
I've received my boards for the controller and audio on saturday. To be honest, i didn't had much hope as this is my first custom pcb ever and I felt it was pretty big of a project. But to my surprise, the controllers worked perfect first try, I...

Hello everyone, I have a quick update.
I've wired up everything in the back case to test all the components together (except from the controller board) and it's working. I might have to increase the voltage of the fan, it's running at around 48 degrees and at that temperature it starts to...

I've also assembled a power regulator, and worked great:
More updates coming soon...
Welp, mi
y stuff from china finally arrived and everything seems Ok.
Iv'e wired up a nintendo switch joystick to an original gamecube controller, unfortunelly there's where my luck ended. The Y axis is inverted while the X axis works fine.
Will investigate and try to find a solution for this.
Hello everyone. Quick status for my portable
I finished the design for the power board, it takes 8.4v from the BMS and takes it down to 1.9v and 3.3v, It also has a JK flip flop so I can power up the unit with a single tact switch.
Components needed:
Tact switch (connected to BTN1 and BTN2...

After messing around with it for around 2 days with what I tought was wrong wiring with the micro SD. Turned out I was using a wrong pin for picoboot GP4 lol.
Wiring for the microSD goes straigth of the CPU pins for...
