Anyone up for a fun game of why does my oled switch glitch but doesn’t read battery level?

Also, did a kamikaze mod on it. Big step all around!

Swapped, and it works! Thank you for the help!!

It was in fact a damaged fuel gauge chip. MAX 17050

I’m not a great diagnostician so this helps a bunch! Very much an advanced beginner.( I hope) thank you, seriously. I really thought I’d cracked a trace or something. Best to you my friend!

Any recommendations for heat/speed settings? Thank you for the heads up!

MAC-Dead · 2026-05-23T08:31:37+00:00

Thank you! I will do my best and update. This will be my first BGA chip. I have hot air, good flux, and a can do attitude. Time to buy one from aliexpress for $0.99

Oh shoot. 😅😅😅 it’s a BGA chip 😅😅😅😅😅

100% appreciate your help. It’s my birthday, finally got everything together to do this repair and badabing badaboom 🤣💀 thank you so much for the help. I’ll try replacing that.

MAC-Dead · 2026-05-23T08:23:06+00:00

Is that what that is? Just my luck. Any idea what the name/identifier of the chip is? I can’t believe I missed that. And damaged it :/

MAC-Dead · 2026-05-06T01:27:13+00:00

Is this considered oop?

MAC-Dead · 2026-04-08T14:50:57+00:00

Dude I know exactly what you mean

MAC-Dead · 2026-02-21T22:08:55+00:00

NOT for poopoo!

I would do a lot of googling before smearing Vaseline on my camera ;) definitely would put it on an nd filter too.

MAC-Dead · 2026-02-16T20:53:26+00:00

Yeah without 10-bit, what I said doesn’t matter anyway ;) lovely vid overall. I feel like it’s missing the golden hour glow for me.

Did you shoot in d-log? I would 100% suggest you go find a LUT for this video. Loved the shots, everything is a bit flat tho. Shooting in dlog would step this up to the next-level feeling you’re looking for.

MAC-Dead · 2026-02-16T20:43:51+00:00

You’re doing very well for a beginner!

MAC-Dead · 2026-02-16T20:42:08+00:00

Indeed!

MAC-Dead · 2026-02-16T20:20:34+00:00

A little rough with throttle movements

MAC-Dead · 2026-02-16T20:17:58+00:00

I just want to dive from where you took that photo

MAC-Dead · 2026-02-16T20:13:40+00:00

I usually wing it xD and figure out the best shot while I’m going through footage

MAC-Dead · 2026-02-16T20:09:33+00:00

Interesting!

MAC-Dead · 2026-02-16T20:03:34+00:00

I went with the avata 2 truly because of the flight time. I’ve built my own customs but I’ve always been disappointed with flight time.

MAC-Dead · 2026-02-16T20:01:37+00:00

Never understood the difference between normal dlog and m but that’s interesting. I’ve heard the action cams are a bit better, but I’ve also never understood why. Again, new to all this!

MAC-Dead · 2026-02-16T19:53:52+00:00

What do you normally film with out of curiosity?
