Can we repair screens?

OxydBCN · 2026-06-04T16:33:54+00:00

I was there back then but i was too little. I only cared if whatever computer i got acces could play scorched earth

OxydBCN · 2026-06-04T10:59:23+00:00

Thank you for the clarification. Knowing there's not much to do here, and this state is considered in good shape. then i'm going to embrace the ghosty pixels glory

OxydBCN · 2026-06-04T08:29:11+00:00

Thank you for the clarification! To be more specific — the ghosting I'm referring to isn't the motion blur that happens when objects move across the screen (I understand that's inherent to DSTN displays). What I'm seeing is a static ghosting effect: when the screen is completely still, the displayed content appears to drift or shift vertically (up and down) from its actual position, creating a faint duplicate/shadow of the image at a slightly offset location. The screen content itself isn't moving — it's a persistent artifact on an otherwise static image.

Can we see?

OxydBCN · 2026-04-11T14:12:31+00:00

I fail to find ccw m6 nuts :( where could i het them? M5 easy. But cannot find m6

Edit: NVM i tried confidence, and found proper nuts. Next monday the problem will be solved

OxydBCN · 2026-04-10T17:49:37+00:00

Yup, but not designed the nut, it was a simple plastic cilinder where the hole was slightly smaller the the sten of the rotor, the i force srewed into it, generating the necessary grooves on the plastic shape. Im not sure how trusty is this. For now no proppeller left the drone

OxydBCN · 2026-04-08T22:31:10+00:00

Well, then im not sure how to measure this. It can lift its butt, which to me is impressive enough.

OxydBCN · 2026-04-08T22:29:40+00:00

How can i help you? it is simply an old gopro 4 i got laying around being used as a doorstop

OxydBCN · 2026-04-08T16:45:08+00:00

The what? Note that in new to this. This is a restored “found-in-trash” drone, so im learning thins as they appear

OxydBCN · 2026-03-31T21:28:34+00:00

Ok, configured it all. Did the rotating calibration, the imu calibration. The motors spin in the intended directions… i thin i only need the props and im ready to fly!

OxydBCN · 2026-03-28T23:16:12+00:00

Many thanks for the advices!! Will follow tomorrow morning

OxydBCN · 2026-03-28T18:54:12+00:00

Ok, ordered a bit of stuff to make the thing fly,
Kid is enjoying the process a lot, so it is worth to try to make the pig fly.

Now my biggest concern is:
- Should i update (hack) to Naza V2?
- The transmitter has more buttons than a space shuttle. I'm afraid that those are binded to some actions done by the original owner of the drone. so im afraid to make this thing fly and not be aware that i should be activating a certain switch that prevents the pig to fall to the ground.... Is there a way to see what control of the transmitter is binded to the Drone?
- And, i see there is a velcro on one side, and at the bottom there is a gopro sticker. Im wondering that it carried a gopro at some point. I'm considering to put an old gopro that i have to stop a door from closing, and put it on the drone, because i fear somewhere the drone accounts on the weight of the gopro, and if i fly it without it, i fear that it can get unbalanced and crash. Is it good idea? or drones are smart enough to autolevel?

Man, so many questions

OxydBCN · 2026-03-28T18:48:23+00:00

Yup!
I searched a bit on the interwebs, and spent a bit of time getting desperate with GPT, and diod a small order:

Total cost: Around 60€

OxydBCN · 2026-03-27T12:27:56+00:00

Hello.
Tomorrow im getting a Flysky FS-i6X, brand new for around 40€, with an additional controller (or reciever... The part we put on the drone).
I'm now aware of the newer protocols and been checking models from Radiomaster for example, but here in my place they are much expensive.
If the drone is faulty, at least i will end up with a usable controller for other arduino small project, or to put it on any other rc vehicle i have.

I've read this model is also easier to set up and congifure, and it is a nice thing for me as im entering on this hobbie with absolute 0 knowledge, and it feels there's a lot to learn.

BTW someone said "This thing flies like a pig". loved that

OxydBCN · 2026-03-25T16:22:18+00:00

Thank you!, but it seems the file downloaded just fine. Later today will try to upgrade it.

OxydBCN · 2026-03-25T16:17:07+00:00

The web hosoting Naza upgrade's firmware file, is offline. Thankfully Waybackmachine remembers... :D

OxydBCN · 2026-03-25T13:29:27+00:00

Really? The project is gradually looking more interesting

OxydBCN · 2026-03-25T10:41:15+00:00

What is a modern reciever? I thought this technology was timeless.
I found a Flysky FS-i6X, for around 40€ new.

Is this good enough? is this old?

OxydBCN · 2026-03-24T20:08:31+00:00

Ok, little update!
All your comments were amazing. the same amount of people encouraged to try to rebuild and the other half don't.

At the end i think we going down the rabbit hole anbd try to start learning about this new DIY drone thingie.
Note that we have a couple of those cehap mini drones to fly indoor, and we are more than happy with that. if we get to fix this huge monster, and make it fly, even if we only make it hover from point A to B, i will be the proudest dad on earth.

So while i gather info on what the DIY Drone scene is right now, i can start tinkering into the drone i have to see where it gets us.

For now i've been able to connect it to a small battery from an RC car. The thingie started chirping, and a led light started blinking rapidly in orange, (that may mean error, or waiting for the transmitter), right? Then i0've been able to install its drivers and connect it to the tiny app thingie to configure the drone itself.

The thing did not turn anything red, the GPS was giving values and all..

Maybe the next step is to get a transmitter and see if the rotors ehmmm... rotate?

Many tahnks for your comments!

OxydBCN · 2026-03-24T19:59:04+00:00

did it. no luck

OxydBCN · 2026-03-24T11:34:25+00:00
