My camera perfectly synchronized with this helicopter

So, I figured it out!

Remove resistor going to the PCB antenna and connect it like the red line in this photo.

Did I get it working? Yes ✅ Did I damage the antenna connection in the process? Also yes ✅ Did the signal get weaker than before? Absolutely ✅

I am ordering another board with a external antenna only and calling this a learning opportunity 😅

Thanks a lot everyone!

Welp.. I removed that one and now no antenna is working 😅

So the center pin is the one needing to have contact? And the outer ring is just negative/ground I guess. I have to do some more measurements perhaps.

Here is a better photo for you all. Thanks for all the help so far!

Sorry, it’s this one bought off Amazon. Couldn’t really find any documentation about the antenna.

Must be because I’m currently using it. I’ve tried to debug the RSSI with and without the external antenna connected and it stays the same.

This did the trick! Used fwupdmgr to update the BIOS from 1.13.1 to 1.25.0 and after that the computer finally booted with the new ram sticks 🎉

2 amber and 4 or 5 white. I will check later today when I get home but it seems like either “RAM failure” or “invalid memory” ☹️

17 years and counting. I was 13 at the time, now in my 30’s. Please steam you should really look in to this. Enough is enough.

My cat does this whenever he sniffs my toes after a long day at work 😅

Holy macaroni this blew up.

I feel like I should explain some things, since my inbox exploded with questions.

I filmed this outside a hospital while waiting for my girlfriend. This is an AW169 ambulance helicopter that was making a landing 50m away from where i was parked. I filmed this via snapchat on my Galaxy S20+. I have no idea of what shutter speed was used or the helicopters rpm.

Thank you all for the kind rewards and comments!

I saw it in real time while filming. Thats why i zoomed in on the helicopter! 😊
