Rangemaster Caps

[rodas807]

So I buy a Board to build the Rangemaster from here, but I can't seem to find the capacitor the C1-5n; C2-22n and the C4-10n... I found some of them in a electric store but not in the same shape as the one in the photo on the build section in the photos, mines are mor in the shape of Ceramir disk, will this work whit the project and if not where can I buy this caps online!? thanks!

The cap values are what's really important here. If you have found a cap that's the right or a similar value you can usually use it no matter what the shape that's expected on the board. So your caps are probably fine. The Rangemaster project does expect to see a specific 'mojo' shape cap, but you don't have to use it.

When it comes to the values, a 5n is very close to 4.7n, and so that will be fine. If you can find a cap that's similar, or very close, usually you can use that.
