Here is a quick install guide for KR Desert Wanderer ECO and ECO-CC Chassis.

KR-Sabers Desert Wanderer ECO Chassis

Introduction

  • Disclaimer

    GOTH-3Designs cannot be held responsible for any mistakes made by DIYers during their install. You must have a good understanding of what you’re doing, of the components used and the safety measures associated to them. Always wear protective gear when working on install (gloves, eye protection, …), GOTH-3Designs cannot be held responsible in case of accident.

  • Note #1

    Always use the smallest wires to make your install easier. There can be big differences between one wire type and another for the same AWG specs. PTFE Wires with the smallest OD are recommended such as those sold at The Saber Armory. A good wire management is also required, routing wires properly helps a lot saving space.

  • Note #2

    These instructions will not cover how to wire the soundboard, make sure to learn how to by reading the manual. We have also typical soundboards wiring available in the Padawan Tutorials. Always test your install along the way! Verifying that everything works after important steps is better than having to dismount everything because something wasn’t wired properly.

    Step 7: Insert the blade side PCB holder in the grenade section and glue it at the top, making sure it is well flat. Then wire the 2nd NPXL hilt Side PCB (to be glued in its slot in the emmitter PCB holder). 
    Finally glue the PCB holder at the bottom of the emitter.

ECO-CC Chassis Quick Install Guide
