Even after already watching your first zero to fighstick video series, there's always something new I can learn from your content. Really like the smooth and chill vibe you give while you're explaining things haha. Great stuff man as always. PS: It would be cool to make a video about how to make an SOCD toggle switch, I haven't found one yet.
Thanks! I've got a lot of videos lined up to release every two days (now that I finally got over my procrastination streak...). I want new people to feel comfortable getting into the hobby, so having that attitude helps. Can you give more specifics for the toggle switch (board, etc)? I already have a switches video coming but I'm plenty fine with making another.
@@Zevaeros Sure, but sadly I haven't made one nor know excatly how to set it up. I've seen bearwitt done it on his builds, guess that would also help if you're willing to try it. Only thing I understood is that most Brook fighting boards are able to change between the two SOCD types with or without an UP5 upgrade (I do have one). A few details are also explained on Brook's site but it's only images, no video or step by step guidance.
@@cliffwatkins5245 Those switches have three terminal leads, as you can see here -- one for "normally open", one for "normally closed", and one for ground. The top lead (has a 90 degree angle) is usually (common) ground; that's the case for the X-Arcade and Cherry D44X switches I've worked with, and I haven't seen one that's different. You want to connect the signal wire to the normally open lead, then the ground to the common ground lead (unless for some reason you want a button that is always on and turns off when you press it for some reason; if you want that, connect to normally closed). Usually ground wires are color coded black, so that's a good indicator you have a ground wire, if you're asking about identifying a wire. Some stick makers use all black or non-standard colors though (as seen in my 8BitDo mod video).
