I used a rubber oring and a thin washer.

you could use washers to make up for the slop. the shaft is maybe 2mm in diameter.

I use a button but its a non adjustable ultra pitch. Essentially I switch between to sets of resistance. I've removed the stock trimmer for the 33.3 speed and replaced it with a break out board with both the stock trimmer and a new trimmer with a different resistance. Then I use a relay to toggle between the two. If you do the battery mod, you have more then enough space to mount the potentiometer inside the battery compartment. That way it could be hidden but still adjustable.

I wired it to the 9v, and the 12v both perform horribly at similar speeds. Since I was doing so much testing anyways I thought to make it easier on myself and used screw terminals for the 12v and 9v.

I wired it straight to the motor out. I will try directly from the 9V and see what kind of results I get.

I started messing around with my focus fader but im not even sure if it is a working fader or not. I gave V+ 5v, metered both VC and I get 5v no matter if there is something blocking the interrupter or not. Is there anyway to check if the interrupters are bad?

im thinking that its the minimum voltage (6v). I believe that the motor runs at max 6v. This is the one I tested and it works but very inconsistent rpms at low speeds https://www.amazon.com/uniquegoods-1803BKW-Controller-Adjustable-Driver/dp/B00RYKR83Q/ref=pd_sbs_60_1?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=K9TXZF5VWMAC0G24MAY2

great video! always helpful to see other peoples thought processes while repairing stuff.

oh interesting, i've been running my 3s lithium pack from the leads. so far nothing has exploded lol... but maybe ill move it 18650s are normally lipo too. Either will be fine.So I made one 8.4v nimh pack and installed with deans connectors..seems to be running fine. Could I run 2 of these packs parallel at once to double the amperage but keep the same voltage? https://instagram.com/p/BQgJ3nthdif I also have a couple 18560 battery sleds that I'm going to put deans on to try 2x18650's since that'll put the pack at 8.4 as well.. 2 packs in parallel will keep the same voltage but I'm not positive that is the best way to go about it. With lithium batteries I usually do a series of parallel groups, but this is because I need to be able to monitor the voltage of each group to charge them safely. I'm using a 3-series over charge/over discharge/short protection board and 6x 3000mah 18650 batteries (3 groups of parallel the put those into series = 12.6v 6000mah).

Thats fine, the voltage regulator can handle up to 18v. http://www.beatshelter.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/pic1_PT01_regulator.png Is it better to solder directly to this piece, to the actual battery lead? I also see some people using 12v batteries.. I can make either or battery pack... I used the battery leads. Whatever is easier for you

Thats fine, the voltage regulator can handle up to 18v.

Sounds good thanks

Yea I don't blame you that 56 was in really bad shape. I still need both the slide pot and rotary pot. Let me know when your parting and how much. Thanks

Hello my friend, could you send the 3D layout for printing the housing to innofader mini? Hello, It is currently not available for download. Maybe down the road but not at the moment. Here is what the final version looks like though. this. you could definitely mount a pot there, but I'm not 100% sure what the best way to go about is. I would probably remove the existing pot from the PCB and extend wires to from the PCB to the new pot.

@rasteri Is there anyway to split the needle signal post fader on the pt01 scratch? Thanks. Also finished up my ultrapitch. Haven't measured the speed reduction yet but you get the point.
