Official AXISdapter Thread: SIXAXIS/DS3 Hacking Made Easy (ONLY PACK A avail)

i had a similar problem in the beginning. slagcoin suggested using two 100K resistors in parallel to make it a 50k resistor for select. i havent had any problems since.

Well I ended up just adding a hole on the right side of the case for a home button. I ran out of patience, but either way Iā€™m very happy with the ease of the rest of the wiring for this stick. My current project needs some sanding/painting on the case, so I figure iā€™ll try to give it a nice gloss. Also, Iā€™ve got a new stainless plate on the way with T5 layout to take care of the blank turbo section and change the button layout to the way I like it. The plate will also have some laser etchings on it, such as button labels, the Playstation 3 logo, Bluetooth logo and Hori logo. Hereā€™s a pic of the current status. Oh, I also need to figure out a good way to mount the USB plug.

PS: The carriage bolt is missing because Iā€™m trying to match it up with stainless steel ones since the stock Hori ones tend to lose their shine with wear.

great post. thanks for sharing.

Iā€™ve been looking for a mini usb to mini usb extension (male to female) to charge the sixaxis but I havenā€™t found anything until I found this:

Do you think it will work?

question bout solderingā€¦ ^^ is there any product i can use to make my soldering stronger? saw on slagcoin he used hot glue but the ps3 controller led seem so small would it get damaged if i use hot glue?

email sent.

Just recieved my AXISdapter, thanx ShinJN! Now lets hope I can get it wired to my SE Fightstick and working. Anyone a expert?

This is what I use on my SE stick and I think this is what you need

go to ebay and look for a usb female to mini usb female and just get a usb to mini usb cable send me e-mail if you want some links they are very cheap stuffā€¦

Hi guys,

Iā€™m a complete newbie here with the Axisdapter. Iā€™ve got a HRAP3 (PS3), and Iā€™m toying with the idea of modifying it to make it wireless.

A few questions for those that have modified their HRAP3 PS3 sticks:

  • Do I need to remove the PCB from the HRAP3?
  • Is extensive soldering required? Or can I get away with a pre-assembled kit and connecting all wires to the screw ins on the Axisdapter??
  • Besides the Axisdapter and a Six-Axis controller PCB, what other hardware do I need?

If anyone has posted a tutorial or documented their modifying experience to make their HRAP3 wireless, I would really appreciate it if you could point me in the right direction.

Thanks!

-no, i have all the original hardware stuffed inside my hrap3, pcb, control panel, and even the original usb is stored inside (behind the metal base, not in the open area under the button panel

-completely solder-less with the pre-assembled kit

-7mm socket, phillips screwdriver, wires strippers/cutters/crimpers, roll of 22ga wire and a bag of quick disconnects if you dont want to cut the original wires off the hori pcb, order a jlf harness, again if you dont want to cut the original one off the hori pcb. you might want to look for a mini usb extension for charging.

Thanks Shin I just got my 3rd adapter!!! THANKS

Thanks!
Sounds fairly straight forward.

Regarding the USB for charging - do you mean I need a Mini-B Plug to a Type B Receptable (female) in order to hook up the six-axis PCB to allow it to be charged by a standard USB type A-B cable?

Correct me if Iā€™m wrong, am I suppossed to create a connection for the Six-axis to charge by connecting a Mini-B male to the Six-axis pcb, and then the other end of this connection be a Type B female that is modded onto the case?

Edit: a picture will help as Iā€™m terrible with words sometimes.
Would I be looking for this type of cable or connector to connect to the six-axis pcb, so that I can charge the controller with a type A-B USB cable?
Mini-B Male to Type B Female (not necessarily this exact one, Iā€™m concerned more with the connections on each end)

What is done with the existing cable on the HRAP3?

get on ebay and type mini usb female to usb female that is what you need !! and also get a cable mini usb cable a foot long total is like $10 pm me if you want me to help you.

my axisdapters just shipped from lizardlick today, canā€™t wait to try them out!!!

This means if you like to use the DVBViewer donā€™t by devices with poor driver.

what is the difference between this and the toodleā€™s version? which one should i get?

They do the exact same thing. ShinJNā€™s has some additional unused points going to screw terminals; I cut them out of mine to cut costs because theyā€™re never used when hacking a sixaxis. Theyā€™ll both work equally well, so get whichever one is easiest or is in a color you prefer.

thx for the reply :slight_smile: :chat:

which one requires the easiest installation/least soldering or are they 100% identical to install ?

from the diagram, it seems like just need to unscrew the ports and then screw in the wires for both of them, i am not even sure if soldering is required. is that right?

sry if my questions seem newbie :shy:

If you get one preassembled (everything soldered together already) then the installation if identical between the two. You strip a little insulation off of the end of the wire, stick it in the screw terminal, and screw it down. And believe me, thatā€™s SO much nicer than soldering to a SIXAXIS :slight_smile:

You still have to figure a few things out no matter whom you buy it from. You need to come up with a way to mount the SIXAXIS pcb and the battery in the case, you need to figure out how you want the USB (needed for recharging and syncing) mounted on the stick, and if youā€™re using an eight button stick, running the extra wire used as the common for L1 and L2 (L1 and L2 and the stick use a different common wire than the rest of the buttons use). But these things are going to have to be figured out no matter which adapter you buy.

so whats ur advice on those questions for a TE stick? is there a very detailed guide?

thx:shy:
