I just draw on kicad what I found from internet, mainly bad resolution photos, the instructions on Dilwing site and a pdf with the PCB draw.

The circuit seen to be correct, my only doubt is on a track that need to be cutted, I replace the cut by two solder blob, I think that do it correctly, but in any case the solution shall be cut another track.

Unfortunately, my lack of time do not allow me to test it.

I will appreciate any feedback or even additional fotos with more details of the area.
