Just wanted to know, on the top right hand side there is an R and a C component, which is which? I'm refering to the black and brown SMD parts.

I think Don wins the prize. yclo, if you are gonna mod the circuit, I suggest you short across the R, so all you have is the C. An easy way to do this is to remove the R and rotate the C so that the two traces go through the capacitor only.

Congratulations Don! You've won!!!!
Your prize is the black R SMD component, it will be in its way to you once I stuff it in a bottle and throw it into the sea. 2% chance of arrival with ETA being about 3~5 years.
Thanks CM,
That was just what I was going to do, since it was the most simple of all things. The others will require more SMD parts which I lack.

May I ask what this mod does?
I'm not familar with anything other than changing the sense resistor....

The RC circuit is for loop compensation. Setting R=0 improves the control loop's transient response. If you see flickering during transition out of regulation, you can make this transition a bit more graceful by setting R to a very low value.

Now the scary part is I actually understand what CM said... And I'm studying Mech. Engineering.
