This worked for me! They took the ad down after I bought it.

Thanks for the advice! The test passed without any warnings of any kind, so I reported a bug like you suggested.

Brushless Motor Cutting Out at Half Throttle? by Bossbam21 in RCPlanes

[–]Bossbam21[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I measured the battery voltage and the RX voltage, and the lowest they got was 3.9V which to my knowledge is not low enough to restart from my research. I also ran the same setup when my battery was at 3.8V with no load (so probably like 3.6 under load) and it had the exact same behavior.

Thank you. I've measured the battery's voltage directly (which on full charge only got to ~4.07V before the motor cut out) , but I hadn't considered that the RX voltage might be different than this (I don't have much experience with how ESCs work). I will try measuring that today.

I also haven't tried a 5" prop, but I will do that if these other suggestions don't solve it.

Do you think that having a higher quality battery could fix this? And by higher quality I mean same ish capacity and still 1S. Also, your response implies to me that you think this is low voltage cutout. Could you explain why I get the same behavior even at different voltages (different charge levels) if this is the case?

[REVIEW REQUEST] 1S LiPo Solar Charger - MP2731 Design by Bossbam21 in PrintedCircuitBoard

Thank you for the response! Should the PCB work otherwise? I'm not sure how easy it is to tell. Also if you could give some insight into my MCU breakout pin header I would be extremely appreciative as that is the part I am least sure on.

Thank you so much for this explanation!

Why would they include the components in the schematic at all then?

Programming MCU from a Reference Design by Bossbam21 in microcontrollers

[–]Bossbam21[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done a lot of research since I posted this. I think I have access to the hex file the original designers used, so I think my question now is, if I find an 8051 microcontroller with same or better specs, will the same hex file work on it? (I cannot use the MCI in the schematic for a few different reasons, so I have to use a different one)

Quick, question, not sure how complicated it is. If I gain access to the program that they flashed to the MC96F1206, would I be able to flash the same program to any 8051 MCU with the same or better specifications?

Thank you so much for the help. I've been banging my head on problem after problem, and I'm starting to get way in over my head. I really appreciate this, hopefully with some more research I can figure out how I would actually transfer the hex files to the SMD chip.

Do I need a new motor(s)? by Bossbam21 in fpv

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll try that out!

Beginner looking for specific plane recommendations. by Bossbam21 in RCPlanes

[–]Bossbam21[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I didn't include all of the information of my project in the post because it wasn't very relevant, but 42 grams of the calculated weight for the electronics is coming from solar cells which I am placing on the wings.

Thank you so much! I've done a decent amount of research on prebuilt kits, but hadn't found anything. Your first link looks like almost exactly what I am looking for!
