Steel Battalion Controller Repacking Tutorial

Repack the controller? Why would you want to do that?

Several Steel Battalion owners have often asked for an illustrated guide to repacking the SB controller. Credit to community member GoW Tigger for supplying the images.


Step 01
Controller Repacking Step 01
Find the box and the guides that tell you how to assemble the parts of the controller. Use your common sense or follow the guide backwards so that your controller ends up in four pieces - left block, right block, centre block (with cover plates) and pedals. I would advise getting a ziplock type plastic bag to keep all the assembly screws together, as well as the underpanel joint braces.
Step 02

Open the box up and and take all the packing materials out.
Step 03

If you have the plastic component bags for each block section place the appropriate blocks into their protective covers. Put the pedal block in and add the two spacer pieces to each side so it all fits together nicely.
Step 04

Now add the centre console front edge down so that the angle matches that of the pedals and they don't touch.
Step 05

Find the two long form-fit spacer pieces and fit the left and right blocks into them.
Step 06

Now turn the left/right block assembly upside down and gently slide it into the box. Make sure the joysticks are centered so that they don't catch on the pedals.
Step 07

Add one of the flat cardboard spacer pieces and place the game manual, controller assembly instructions and the game disc(s) on it.
