Not sure if this is right forum to ask but here we go.

Current Yongnuo RF 603 II flash triggers cannot be triggered via PC-sync port. Has anyone tried to mod it to support triggering via pc-sync? I know there are pc sync hot shoe adapters but I would like to keep my setup simple.

If you happen to know anything about it let me know since all help is appreciated! Also was planning to document my findings to this thread.

Hi. If i were to perform this mod on my RF603, the PC sync part only, would i then be able to trigger the transmitter with a simple push button on a pc-sync cable? I would like to be able to use this mounted on a mountain bike. the push button would be mounted to the handlebars

Much simpler is what I did. I got a PC hotshoe thingy from Ebay for $1. I've hooked up these things from anything to my Land 104 to a Lubitel 2. Works like a charm.

Ok, that sounds easier. Would you have a link to one of these hot shoes, or is just anyone that has a pc socket?
