Even in that position ? Do you have pics of a cart big enough that will reach that place ?zephyr wrote:Yes. It looks like you will need to move the switch.
Already looking into it. But right now I'm taking a time to look at the saturated colors issue.KenH wrote:Cool!

All of the Dragon cartridge cases that I have seen take up the full width, and almost the full height of the cartridge port. Its difficult to be 100% sure, but I would say from looking at the video footage that the switch would be in the way of any original DragonDOS controller or game cartridge.Dantyr wrote: Even in that position ?

Well, Daniel, at least that hole will be almost unnoticeable. Me, I'm gonna do it the old-fashioned way -- hole in the back. But first, I'll look for a dual-position push-button (like the channel 3/4 switch) so it looks neater.zephyr wrote:All of the Dragon cartridge cases that I have seen take up the full width, and almost the full height of the cartridge port.

The back get most exposed to crash with the desk, wall and other things. The ideal place for a switch is on the side after the slot cart, as Zephir made on his mod, because it's get protected from colisions by the protuberant side.JCCyC wrote:Well, Daniel, at least that hole will be almost unnoticeable.

Good idea! Most of us are only using the monitor port these days anyway, since its video quality is much better than RF output.Dantyr wrote:I'm still thinking on modify the 3/4 channel button for the switch to the DragonCoco
Of course! Done. I also had to cut up the Styrofoam in the box so the Dragon would fit back in with the new switch. Admittedly, I'm not the best Styrofoam sculptor there is.Dantyr wrote:The back get most exposed to crash with the desk, wall and other things.
