In this video I restore rare Casio Heli-Battle Handheld console. In 1980's Casio better known for their calculators and watches made also gaming consoles such as this Heli-Battle game. These days, they go for high prices on Ebay if they are in good condition.
This is a very basic restoration. AS you can see sometimes it's very useful to remove desolder parts like I did. Because I was able to remove the back of the shell completely and the speaker with the housing it was much more easier to detach the speaker and the battery contacts. But it's always important to make sure you can actually solder the parts back in. Sometimes a part can be so hard to solder back that you want to avoid desoldering it at all costs.
After the console was disassembled I cleaned the parts with soapy water. I had also looked online that the console should be clearly lighter color so I decided to give it the deyellowing treatment. The console was never gray or white like the Gameboy or some other consoles so it won't turn like that in this process. All colors of plastic Yellow but based on my experience besides gray and white, blue and green seem to be usually visibly most discolored plastics, also I've seen pink turn brown many times. Few times I've also seen black turn to sort of dark green color. This process will work to restore all of those colors, however if the original color in the plastic has faded this method won't fix that, it only removes the yellow/brown discoloration. Here is my tutorial for the process: • How to remove yellowin...
I cleaned the board with isopropyl alcohol. The battery contacts were nickel plated again to prevent the corrosion from reoccurring. I also replaced one of the wires going to the battery contacts. Usually negative wire is black and positive is red, like you can see on the speaker. So I know the wire has been replaced by someone at some point. Now it looks like more professional and someone else who might repair the console ion the future will not mix the wires up as easily.
During the assembly also made new glue for the lens from double sided tape. This is a great way to reattach parts that need custom shaped pieces of tape.
Thanks for watching my video!

My dad was an electrical engineer and he used to fix everything on the house, as a kid i often liked to watch him fix electronic equipment like this. He passed away 3 months ago and now I realize why i always liked these videos so much.
It's kinda hard for me to watch your videos now, but they mean a lot to me. Thank you.
I'm sorry about your dad, I hope these videos can bring you comfort when the pain isn't so fresh.
Somebody might call me gullible but this seems too real not believe
I sorry for your dad
I'm sending you online hug
May you’re dad Rest In Peace~
The ductor is back!
Ducktor's got madd fans!
@Máté Gál he attacc dirt
He protecc consoles
But most importantly,
He dress fine as hecc
He's now a ducknight
"Now it will look like a professional has fixed it."
You're too humble, my friend. If you're not a professional, I don't think anyone deserves that title.
Well, professional means you were paid to provide support, it doesn't tell anything if said support was good.
Noah was not a professional, while professionals built the Titanic...
A professional did fix it! He’s in this video!
@@laplongejunior it ain’t that deep
@@laplongejunior cool, but he is a professional
@@altonology1134 but their corpse are
the only thing you can't fix is raid's reputation, but that's a good thing
He actually ❤️ed that comment
ABSOLUTE MADMAN
Honestly, he earned that sponsorship $$$ 😂
my man straight shitting on the company in the comment section while also getting sponsored. absolute GIGACHAD
@@razielette2159 Makes you want to watch all the other ads unskilled to compliment the sheer audicity.
Did Raid do something?
For anyone wondering, the helicopters on the front of the console are U.S. AH-1G Cobras
Cool. I didn't think of this question but I'm really happy to know the answer
Yes, but the big one is an UH-1C Huey Hog
I'm thinking that it's a S model or later since it has a flat plate canopy and 20mm gun. I was a crew chief on AH-1F's in the Army.
@@bhess1212 thank you for you service 🙏
@@OddTinkering Hello, I am watching you from Azerbaijan and I like your videos very much
you work neatly
I am very comfortable every time I watch your videos

Everyone: _(Thunderous Applause)_
**Odd tinkering brings out isopropyl alcohol**
That jump scare at 3:14 got me good. It’s sometimes a real curse knowing how much video game artifacts, like this one, are worth.
Do tell, for those of us not in the know.
You just unlocked one of my childhood memories, I had this console when I was 6 or 7 years old and I was one of the cool kids at school for having this. I had totally forgotten about it and the moment I saw your video and the game play audio at the end, it brought back some wonderful memories I had in my childhood. Wonderful restoration by the way 😍
I Felt the same bro :) Peace!
You're probably born in the late 70-s era. Kids today don't know what they're missing in our time
@@657Crew IKR they are even missing out on Xbox 360’s how popular they were and older systems than that
Who knows that might have been yours
Yes me too had the old memories....
13:26 "Now it will look like a professional has fixed it"
That's because a professional has fixed it, my friend
i never thought the sight of a rubber ducky could make me so happy until i started watching odd tinkering
Every sight is an experience! Let's just say there are only 2 skill you have in your life! 1) is buy electronic part & 2) part is sticking back those electronic parts so old part could be replaced.
The uck is just part of recordings! Let say you broken down (uninstall part) a much heavier stuff for instance, an aircorn which a whole lot bigger. So, when you have some cams or tape recorder, in that way, you can rewind back the uninstalling process, for instance on a laptop, so you won't forget the things you've uninstall & reinstalled that later.
2:26 if you want to skip the raid shadow legends part.
Thank you
Thx
Then you miss a cameo appearance of the ducktor!
@@SharkoonBln with his mighty aluminum armor and his mighty screwdriver
Not the Hero we deserve but the one that we need
1:15 why is no one talking about this absolute unit. LOOK AT HIM!
Because we heard "Raid Shadow Legends" and skipped ahead to when the ad was over.
Thanks for the shoutout to armored ducktor, though, that was great.
@@mjc0961 what should we name him? The Mighty Ducktor?
_Casio used faint polarizers to boost reflectivity. You can tell by the transparent blue copters. I think it was a good decision because I dislike dark muddy LCDs._
_Also, I love seeing an old custom QFP and pondering all of the wizardry it took to multiplex the LCD, as well as generate an array of sounds through that piezo disc._
_So glad you corrected the negative lead to black. The nickel plating was awesome! This little jewel of antique technology now has a second life, thanks to you._
One thing I learned about Odd Tinkering is that you need a large amount of Isopropyl alcohol and Hydrogen peroxide to restore old electronics.
Don't forget Hydrogen Peroxide and UV lighting.
hahahahahahhaha
and soapy water
And a toothbrush
@@bob-kx5iv I think you mean watery soap
I went through my old chest of drawers and found my football game like this,and yes,I did remember to take out the batteries before I threw it in there....it's in great shape.,
brother send it to his PO Box. that might give they toy a new life
Enjoyment during video: 100%
Enjoyment when the Ducktor makes his appearance: 100000%
Raid sponsor appearance: 0%
RAID shadow legends: hi
@@detomnz2024 This is why you get sponsor block lmao. YTbers get their money and I get my peace of mind, it's a win-win.
This must be the most satisfying job ever!
Also keep up the good work,man!
Soon Odd will repair the whole world.
As always a masterpiece of the restoration
Ah, games from an era when your parents bought you them, and told you to turn that bloody thing off when you dared to play it... :P
And you can't pause because it's online
👏👏👏👏👏
at least you could turn off the sounds and play under your bed covers...
@@Gareth820617 haha!
My parents still do that
This channel's taught me that circuit boards aren't nearly as fragile as I felt they are. I went from 'I don't want to touch it directly, I might break something' to 'ah, it's fine, you can use an old scratchy toothbrush on this and it'll hold up.' I haven't gotten too good with opening things and trying to fix them yet, but I'll be more prepared for when I get there now.
So are we just going to ignore the huge bit of Odd Tinkering lore that got dropped in this video? He wears the gloves to the bathroom!
Bad Bad Bad ... So why am I laughing my head off?
Who doesn't ???
Should i watch this in bathroom?
@@doorbelldolphin if your in your house yeah sure, but probably a bad idea in a public restroom
Wonder if he washes his hands after peeing lol
I've never seen a handheld like that before.
Neither have I 👀👀
They were very popular in the 80s and early 90s...I had this game and submarine battle they were awesome for their time.
Never seen my kitty sitting and looking at a video like this one, didn't look away once, and when the video was over she walked away :D
Anyway, great stuff :)
Was the first time I heard this guys voice a Raid Shadow Legends endorsement? Haha
I was thinking the same thing 😅
Hands down, no questions asked! Your channel... is wholesome and content 😊! Keep up the good work! 👍🏼
This man, he is a legend. He fixes the console, then continues to play it for multiple mins. LEGEND
This one was special to me. I had that machine when I was a kid. Thank you.
after "western bar" for me this is the best game that casio made. very good video
Coboy cry
I love these videos, and get that you had to sponsor, but raid shadow legends? Also, are all raid ads required to be long?
Love your content!
They ask for a certain length probably.
It's almost effortless to skip it.
Good to see Mr Ducktor doing his thing again, he’s such a VIP! 🦆👏🏼🥇
Gotta love ....."The Ducktor" 😊
i could watch these for hours
Same. It's so interesting and calming
This video was heli-awesome dude
I think I've been watching your channel for over a year now, it's always so satisfying to see you return things to their former glory, the old game systems are definitely my favorite, keep up the great work!!!
I love his humor, I love the ducktor, I love everything honestly
Considering its age it still look healthier than most humans😂
'Favorite place to play' is low-key killing me!
The image of the Ductor wearing tin foil armor with a toy sword next to him was my favorite part.
I’ve watched about a dozen or so of your videos now. And what I have learned so far is, you are extremely talented, these videos are very relaxing to watch, and isopropyl alcohol is magic
Casio made a lot of old electronic games! Some of them were to compete against tiger electronics! Who at the time were big in the old days! Even today you can see that the gamestop near my area has some of those tiger electronics handhelds..
Odd: The screen was glued on tightly.
Me (loudly to myself): IPA it is.
MORE IPA
@@valeckseimu3132 Seriously, it works so well, I consider buying some of it myself :P Some IPA producent should sponsor Odd ;)
Anyone else have a mini heart attack along with him when the snap sound occurred? Jeez, that made me jump!!!
Fantastic restoration, though!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
the old restoration of these iconic 80s nostalgia hit for some is so good
Great channel
Love your vids odd tinkering when you post I get stupidly excited for no reason
Odd Tinkering = instant like
@@magich8ball exactly
When level starts it plays Ride of the Valkyries, so it's basically a Apocalypse Now handheld.
Wow! This is so cool, I didn’t even know this game existed until now. It’s so fascinating watching you take apart and fix these retro console!
I honestly do love that you take the time to restore simple handhelds like these.
First time I was happy to hear an ad...because we got to hear Odd's voice. :)
This is actually the second time
This man can fix anything! But he'll never fix my horrible sleep schedule if he keeps uploading :/
Oof
Always impressed with your restorations. You’ve inspired me for sure!
These are my favorite videos of yours. Love seeing old games & ones that I didn’t even know existed, brought back to life!
Mitä helvettiä, oon kattonu sun videita nyt varmaan jo vuoden ja en oo ikinä tajunnu että oot suomesta :D Aloin miettii asiaa vasta ku aloit puhumaan mainoksen aikana
Joo mitäpä sitä liikaa aksenttia piilottelemaan jos sen ymmärtää ja tässähän sitä harjotusta tulee 😁
@@OddTinkering Totta :)
Mulla kävi tää sama joku aika sitten. Eka havahtuminen tuli, kun näin Vartat. Sitten jonkun pullon kyljessä oli suomea ja tunsin oloni idiootiksi, mutta ylpeäksi kanssaeläjästä. :) Aksentissa ei ole mitään vikaa! T. Enkun ope
For english-speakers like me, what Perus Mulkku said was "What the hell, I've probably been watching videos for a year now and I never realized that you were from Finland."
@@Shroom64 thanks man
Every time I see the ducktor I start screaming at the top of my lungs:
Ducktor Time :)
my first step into video games.... the nostalgia is ridiculously thick here. if i knew YT, this channel and this video was gonna be a thing in the mid 90's, i would had kept it and fix it up.
I never get tired of your videos! Thank you for all of the hard work you put into making them! 💪🏽❤️🤙🏽
Nostalgic Elementary School Moment
Amazon: How much ISA do you need?
Him: Y E S
This is pure art, Sir!
Hello, because of the work and much to do I have not been able to follow the videos that you have uploaded lately, but this one I could see it! I've never really seen a CASIO game console! Incredible and what a good researcher you are! many successes and greetings to DUKTOR from Guatemala!
Does no one realize that this is the furst time we have ever heard him talk?!
He's talked before in some of his oldest videos
It wasn't him, it was the ducktor talking.
Odd Tinky has never been that good in a game that he had replaced before 😁😁😁
Loved watching this! brought back many memories. Went on a rampage in my closet and found mine and played for a few hours. Just letting you know the color is right, it was not yellow. great work on the restoration! love your videos
Always amazed that you are able to bring these back to life
É tão relaxante ver isso.
OMG! I haven't seen one one those in 30 years.
Heh boomer
@@user-vg4zs2no4j
Ha! 🤣
I love this guy's channel. Pure relaxing ASMR and he's a genius. 👍
I always loved watching these. You always do such an amazing job restoring things.
Okay, is the Ducktor a doctor by trade who takes care of his kingdom by being a knight? Or is he a knight that offers his talents as a doctor? Also... new gaming channel idea; only play hand held games😁
Again in 3050: "restoring 2020 Nintendo switch"
I like how this implies OT is immortal
Lol
So much nostalgia. Kid I've met long time ago on a hiking trip had two of those consoles. Heli-battle and Submarine-battle. We burned through several battery sets, beating each other's high scores over and over again.
I still have exactly one of these. I bought it 30 years ago. Great video! Keep up the great work!
Seems like way more adds than before. Couldn't get into it with so many adds.

The game music is such a contrast to the repair. I love it. Great job.
awesome fix, I gotta say I am very impressed by the handhelds sound effects coming through that pezio, also the workmanship of casios circut board for a handheld is impressive, great video!
This looks like brand new now. Awesome! 😁
3:15 “That didn’t sound good.”
I audibly gasped
I never thought I'd hear these game sounds again, pretty awsome !
This was so relaxing!
In the 80's and 90's i get a lot of fun with toys like this.
that heli battle is like a relic my dad told me stories about black and white video games that back in the day if you have one of those your very happy and your the cool kid in town thanks odd for still preserving the past. 💞
i could honestly binge watch your videos all day!
Very relaxing to watch! ♥️
I love watching you work. It's so satisfying!
Nostalgic,love the sound as well !!!
It always surprises me how these 30 something devices can work flawlessly with a little care. Thanks for sharing, man.
This is one of my all time favorite channels to watch. I cheered when I saw a new video
Great, dude! Amazing work.
Aaah the sound that made parents go bananas in the car! Turn that sound off or I will throw your game out of the car! Childhood memories!
Great video as usual! Thank you!
I still have this game & watch, including submarine battle & western bar..Loved the restoration. Thanks.
Nick Gonzalez my grand father had a downstairs tool shed.I loved
My grandpa ....R.I.P. FROM DEMENTIA. I used to build things with him or just hang out with him, then he didnt know what his tool garage was for he couldn't pick up a screw driver or hammer again .I MISS AND LOVE YOU GRAMPS.
R.I.P. 😭😭😭😭
Another nice video thanks!!! 👏
I just cannot get enough of watching your videos so clever and brilliant to bring new life to old electronics 😁😁😁
This is a great video, like all of the ones you've made
My! Thank you for bringing back all this childhood memories.
Its so amazing when it starts working again
Finally! Been missing you! 😭
Another piece of history restored! Thanks!
I love this kind of games, great fixing & restoring xD
