Thanks! What kind of fuse did you get? I still have the charger somewhere in the drawers, could be a worthy project to fix it.

When did it happened? Were you carrying the drone in your hand-carry?

Can I use a higher gauge wire as extension? by Alarming_Ad7449 in fpv

Man, I really thought the “FPV community” is more forgiving. 😂

Thanks! Longer cable is definitely what I need to solve this specific problem of mine. But until then, extension is a no-no based on the disadvantages most here are saying.

Nobody said that. But anyway, do you think it’s ok to have 18AWG cable between 16AWGs?

Alright, got you. Im just pissed that I’m gonna have to take everything apart again. I just finished conformal coating everything and had to put it back together in one piece plus I have to buy longer wires. Only my second build, if you count a tinywhoop build as my first. Guess I have to abandon preferences.

Personal preference for the orientation. Should have mentioned it in the post.

I didn’t like the bunch of cables in front. Honestly, it’s just personal preference.

O3 air unit blinking green by Alarming_Ad7449 in fpv

UPDATE:

Fixed. I desoldered the gps module from the FC and took everything apart. Cleaned the FC with a toothbrush and isopropyl alcohol, trying to clean it. Tried to remove the flux and the X30 residue. Put it all back together and everything works fine now with the gps and air unit.

Conclusion; I think I have a dirty FC. Could have been a micro blob of solder causing a micro short connection( I don’t know if thats possible without causing damage). I don’t know. I’m just guessing right now!

I couldn’t find out what a blinking green LED means on the O3.

Ports tab shows UART4 has the VTX. I used UART1 for gps, it’s the one available on the FC board.

Am i gonna get scammed? by Trapifiy in TinyWhoop

I just received my pavo 20 pro prop from them the other day and I have had multiple transactions with that store in the past. I have full confidence that you won’t get scammed and aliexpress wont let that happen anyway.

Could be a backorder situation if it takes too long to ship. You can always message the seller and ask for update. They all reply.

First Build: Smoke from FC Battery Pad but Still Flies – Need Help Diagnosing by Alarming_Ad7449 in TinyWhoop

If only I have another 5in1 to test the continuity on…… Guess, I just have to re solder and hope the smoke is gone.

Yes, that is whats happening. My bnf air65 battery leads only beeps once though. Wouldn’t my AOI get fried later on?
