Hinge

[royo]

The hinge on my Mako will not allow it to close. Does any one know how to open one of these units up.

I did find instructions somewhere on the web when I needed to do this for the same reason... I don't remember much, but you need to pry off the "Diamond Mako" sticker in the center of the silver color on the top of the case. You'll find two pins shaped like tiny allen wrenches. Take these out and the silver piece should start to come off. I didn't have to do much more than that to fix mine - a few small plastic parts fell out. I just put it back together without them and it has worked perfectly since then.

I hope this helps somewhat...

Thank you. That did it.

Glad to hear that you were able to solve the problem so easily.

The website that you are referring to/looking for is www.portal-pda.com
It has great pictures illustrating how to dismantle a Revo, replace its batteries, etc. - it should definitely be bookmarked.
