Re: Feeler: full colour driver extension for the White Fusion kit
I figured you could stack using rows of pins as well, but what i was getting at, is if he's building them on proto-board for now, he can manually stack the pic and other parts and just bridge the trace points using thin mod-chip wire. yes i know, it would look dirty, but it could REALLY save some space! any open area in the enclusure is a candidate to house a part or parts of the driver, to compact it as much as possible. (given your not putting a spyro in, but both would be SICK!, who knows, maybe stacking would create enough room for a spyro, who knows until we try!)
Also, could this possible be made one day using surface mount parts, and tiny pots like on RKCSTR drivers and whatnot, or would that just be way to expensive? i know it isnt feasable, given the kind of low number of people who will even take this project on, but is it possible? do we have access to the SM parts needed to make the same driver, just super surface mount style, like they took the LM317 and made a RKCSTR out of it using different parts though, but it's essentially the same thing i believe.
Just throwin that out there, figured it was worth mentioning. I wish i has a board to modify, and see just how small i can make it! but thats a project for another day, plus im sure FML has thought of all this already, im sure the design is at it's max potential already, FML does amazing work. I trust his judgment, and abilities, if this is what he created, im sure it was as small as it could possibly be given the tools/parts required.
