this video doesnt seem to match the pdf support doc on the last page wiring diag. not sure how the BEC fits into all this. all the talk about cutting two esc red wires to power the servo is confusing can somebody pls help explain like yer talking to a six year old maybe i can get it. trying to wrap this thing up.
A tip and a WARNING !, Do not thrust the colors of the wire, i have gotten several different mw+ and nunchucks out of ebay (including ones that claims to be original) .. And not on a single one have the colors been correct. Look at the connector instead and see what the different wires are ! Great video !!!
@petleh82 Totally understand your warning, but if you notice (both in our written documentation and in this video) we only use the genuine Nintendo-brand controllers so as to avoid bad sensors.
@CrashHancock Ofcourse.. Trying to get originals might be hard, even if the seller claims them to be.. And if i would go to a local store (sweden), i would have to put out about $100 for a wm+ and a nunchuck !!! And you Americans complains about your gas prices, Swedish gas price = $8.5 for a gallon :-) Now i am heading of to work, and to listen to another of yours wonderful podcasts! Have a nice day !
I'm looking at building one of these, too. Shoot me a PM if you want. I'll help you through it. Might be able to build you something if you're really stuck.
@Skydive4ever Don't sell yourself short, Mario. If I can do it, ANYBODY can do it! LOL I will say, however, another option that may make things a bit easier may be to use an Arduino Uno board instead of the Pro Mini board. That options allows you to to skip the soldering of any wires to the board, since the Uno has female headers that you can simply plug Jumper wires into. This would leave you with really only having to solder the wires associated to the Wii components.

Oye, I don't think I would be able to handle this part of the build :-O Do you know anybody who would have this section already built for sale? ;-)
