This product includes both the transmitter and receiver boards for the Capcom Flipper Football goal assembly. The original factory assembly has a number of faults that prevent most games from working correctly. These redesigned boards solve all of these issues without any modifications to the goal assembly!

The original goal design has the receiver and transmitter boards attached to the goal assembly by very skinny posts, all of which are in a straight line. The transmitter board is also very thin and has a number of ventilation holes for dissipating heat. Unfortunately the heat and thin construction of the transmitter board and the skinny mounts cause the board to twist during play. This causes the optos to mis-align and causes the game to think a goal has been registered when it hasn't.

The new boards use large posts which fit over the original skinny posts, plus have additional standoffs which are strategically placed to prevent board twist and opto mis-alignment. The boards themselves are also much stiffer to prevent board flex. Finally, the transmitter boards operate much cooler than the originals, eliminating heat warp.

The newly redesigned board has a number of significant advances that improve over the original:

• Less heat generated - no more board warp from heat.
• Better board construction with large traces and pads for more reliability.
• Larger board mounts and standoffs to eliminate opto mis-alignment.
