Fixing My Estes LED Electron Beam Controller Part 3


Tie a loose overhand knot in the wire about 5/8" from the end before soldering on the terminals. The know is tied loose so you can make adjustments to the knot position when reassembling the controller.

The terminals are soldered on the new end of the wire.




The terminals are set back into position. The knot is adjusted and tightened. The knot is set inside the end of the controller box.








I had to use a little bit of CA glue to set the cover back on.






The controller is again ready for launching.
You can see how bright the new LED is!
