There should be one in the kit.. It will work without it anyway..

didn't see it but then again they are very small, Ill recheck the packaging again, what type of capacity is it and what is it doing if it will work without it ?

PS. Soldered it up and its working and boots into 1.04 now so thank you for the prompt sending of the kit :)

If its missing I can send another if you PM your last order number... May take a couple weeks to send though.. I think its a 0805 10uF..I cant check until next week.
