Title: VS SkyKid Install-Swap
Post by: DJT on December 16, 2011, 08:29:51 am
Some General questions as this is the first time I'm attempting to swap out a game out of my unisystem. (swapping out Golf for a SkyKid)

1. This Skykid kit i got actually seems to be on the daughterboard daughterboard of RBI. I assume since they share the same PPU, this should be okay or not?

2. I was looking at the dipswitch settings here and I don't see any settings for free play - are there?

3. Is the daughter card supposed to drop down into the PPU and CPU spots pretty flush? I don't want to jam this thing in there, but right now, it doesn't seem to be sitting on the main PCB very snug.

Heeeeeeeeelp?

==== this is ok!

2. I was looking at the dipswitch settings here and I don't see any settings for free play - are there?

==== I don't think there is a freeplay for sky kid

3. Is the daughter card supposed to drop down into the PPU and CPU spots pretty flush? I don't want to jam this thing in there, but right now, it doesn't seem to be sitting on the main PCB very snug.

==== not flush with the board. THere is going to be a gap so the components below the daughter board don't get smashed. Just stick it in so it's nice and snug in the PPU and CPU sockets.
