@pinbi7 is correct. An RCM Loader is readily available and provides the same result.

If you want to build your own…

I’m pretty sure the dragon injector was just a SAMD chip, so a Trinket M0 is pretty much the same thing. You can build an external injector with a Trinket OR you could solder the Trinket inside your Switch and and never have to “inject” anything manually ever again (you’re still injecting…just automating and hiding it inside your Switch.)

Trinket M0 Hardware — The @mattytrog Bible for installing the Trinket M0
Trinket M0 Software — The @mattytrog encyclopedia of Trinket M0 software (source here https://github.com/mattytrog/FUSEE_SUITE)

There is literally no reason to do this. It's just an RCM Loader that goes in the card slot.

An RCM loader can be had for $10 and is small enough to fit in most carrying cases. You'd probably spend more in materials to build the Dragon Injector.

I mean yeah it's a cool concept but it's kind of obsolete at this point.

Well no, I do love mine. But since Nintendo went with the big paper. There is nothing to find about it more or less.

yes there are a reason, the Cart format is a bless, you can store your loader on the cartridge slot and never lost it.

My wife has lost two RCM this year, the third i had to tie to the switch carrier case using a cord. Hope she don´t loses this.

Sounds like getting one fitted internally might be a worthwhile investment at this point :yayswitch:

found a Seeeduino XIAO - Microcontrolador Arduino® - SAMD21 Cortex M0 +. Will work?
A couple people asked about the seeeduino in the official thread but nobody answered.

I would be cautious about using anything not listed.

Damn fitting one internally sounds like a real challenge and a huge risk. Could i fuck it up really badly?
Of course there is always a possibility, which is exacerbated if you aren't particularly good at soldering.

Hence why USB based RCM Loader is your better choice.

you can absolutely fuck your shit up really badly. This shouldn’t be your first soldering project. Some of the solder points require a microscope and you‘re often literally millimeters away from other things you don’t want to melt and float away. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry you’ll experience all sorts of emotions but it’s a really cool mod once it’s done!

That's what kills me. 76 USD the shipping + local taxes (30% of the payment)
