J1 connector cap
If the cap for the W5P3 connector
disappears, dirt can plug the connector
fast. There is no replacement cap.
Solution: Use a cap for the control

cap for $6.
Tape a plastic
bag over the
connector
until the cap
comes.

is on the front of the launcher arm stop.
If it’s on the rear of the stop, the rock-

MICLIC crew suffered burns when that

When the MICLIC is going to sit for
days, remove the W3,W5,
and W6 cables and the
control box and put them
in the storage box. Left
exposed to heat and
cold, the cannon wires
can separate from the
cannon plug. Just
the W3 cable
alone costs
more than
$1,200.
