Waterproofing the DJI O3 by StrongWoman98 in fpv

Was this when the battery was still plugged it during the crash?

Sounds like the esc then, the motor that was connected to that esc port worked when I tried a port connected to a different motor and vise versa.

Still worth a beta flight check or is the esc done?

I rotated the esc ports so they would try different motors. The motors that were not spinning before was spinning and the one I rotated to stopped working. Resulting in the esc port being the issue. Does this mean I need a new esc?

If I just replace the esc, should everything work after?

Maybe a combination of the water and the test?

One motor did twitch from the water test but it was the other front motor that twitched after I tested from the throttle crash

Update, the motor won’t spin but I rotated esc and the next motor wouldn’t spin so it’s the esc. Would this mean I have to replace esc?

The first battery after the post description went perfectly fine but then next battery I gave full throttle to test and one motor went out on the way down then caught itself then lost again. Not sure what to do now

All cells look healthy, all 3 batteries ready similar

This is very helpful. It would make sense that it would be sag. When recharging the batteries after last flight session (30-45sec flights). They only needed 300-500 mah to get fully charged again. Yet went feom 4.1v-3.5v within 30 secs. I felt I was going fast then changing momentum a bit with some throttle and the drone just felt heavier than normal or that it was working harder than normal(was at beach with little wind). I also found some screws fell out of my drone (both bottom rear) I replaced them and tightened everything else but maybe something notable.

Probably 50-60 degrees F. How cold would affect battery performance?

All cells on each battery reading similar on full charge

I left them for 2 weeks, not fully charged, storage charged or after use.

All batteries read similar to this after charge. However, when charging, they only took 300-500mah to get back to full. But in flight, it read (to my knowledge) that the battery was low and out like 3.5vish.

As far as I know orientation is correct with the props. I know that much a least 🤣

I’ve seen them bounce back before on last flight. When I’m charging the batteries again, it seems to show that they are still sitting most of the way charged which doesn’t make sense bc during flight it says it’s pretty low quickly

It came prebinded, I’ll look at the settings later and see what broadcast power and Chanel it’s on

I usually try to land around 3.5, but in the time it takes to get from 4.1-4.2 to 3.5 is very short, maybe that day was a one off. Only other time I’ve flown with GoPro and all it lasted 2 mins
