That's odd.  I received my kit on Dec 27th and mine looks nothing like yours.  While my PDB is different than the picture in the instructions, it's clearly marked.  I have run into some other issues with discrepancies from the documentation though.  Just not with the PDB.

Hey Adam,

I got the same PDB as you. The way I interpreted the instructions is the you start with the 2-pin harness and solder it the the corresponding +ve and -ve terminals of which ever motor you like. This will then be your motor 1. You then get your 4-pin harness and start by soldering the orange cable in the "S" hole on motor 1. Then you just copy the sequence shown in the picture.

I don't think it's too much of a problem that the holes are in different positions to the PDB they show in the picture because the circuit still does the exact same thing (I think :) )

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply Chris.  I figured it shouldn't make a difference but its nice to know someone else had the same issue.

 

Happy New Year!
