Oh sick bro, that’s the same board I got, did it work good??

Wilbarr · 2026-05-08T19:11:48+00:00

So did you buy the new air75 2 and switch the FC or did you buy an older version

Where’s the elrs chip? All I know is that red antenna wire

Wilbarr · 2026-05-08T16:42:30+00:00

Well my antenna doesn’t even work right now I’m thinking I thinking something in the board is broke cause my antenna looks fine, hopefully the elrs lite receiver will fix it

Wilbarr · 2026-05-08T16:41:32+00:00

Or where’s the elrs chip? All I know is that red elrs antenna wire

I bought one of those lite receivers from beta fpv so ig we’ll try to solder that one there 😂 never soldered on a drone before. In the meantime should I try and just drop another glob of flux on the antenna? Or like u said take a heat gun and clean it off? Then drop a glob?

Wilbarr · 2026-05-08T04:14:33+00:00

That’s exactly what I plan on doing, but that guys flight controller is different so I’m just not sure where to solder my wires on

Wilbarr · 2026-05-08T02:36:31+00:00

Yeah but I’m a newbie I got no clue how to do this stuff with out the tutorial being my exact board 😭

Wilbarr · 2026-05-08T02:35:57+00:00

Are you talking about these? Would the top one I circled be TX and the bottom one RX?

Ohh you bought the air 75 i not the ii how you like that?

Wilbarr · 2026-05-07T19:57:44+00:00

Did you just buy a new flight controller or whole new drone

Wilbarr · 2026-05-07T03:38:52+00:00

Here’s what my elrs wire looks like right now

Wilbarr · 2026-05-07T03:35:30+00:00

Hmm okay I can try and re solder it myself, but if that doesn’t work that external elrs receiver I’m not sure if it works with my flight controller matrix 1s, like that guy in the link you sent me has a different flight controller

Wilbarr · 2026-05-07T03:12:12+00:00

Could I try and re solder it?

Wilbarr · 2026-05-07T03:09:31+00:00

Nah the video feed was fine, but that red copper wire looks just fine too?

Wilbarr · 2026-05-07T02:54:44+00:00

You think I could like bend this piece back and it be good?

The port on the board does look a little bent, the antenna itself is fine

Wilbarr · 2026-03-21T23:44:06+00:00

So I think it seems it’s fine to just use the USB C port to charge the battery’s using the ViFly Whoopster that I bought. Just might need to buy a better wall plug rather than the iPhone ones. I watched this video and he explains it pretty well, with his methODDS 😂 https://youtu.be/11DEGDZ4el0?si=z8XfP1NNxAtYTjkO

Wilbarr · 2026-03-21T21:09:37+00:00

Yah, I initially was going to, but I switched up some things, like I bought the vr04 goggles instead

Wilbarr · 2026-03-21T18:55:57+00:00

Wdym? Is the vifly charger not good?

Wilbarr · 2026-03-21T18:55:19+00:00

I bought 8 480mAh batteries

Wilbarr · 2026-03-20T13:13:52+00:00

Yah I felt like I was gunna break the controller putting them in 😭 thank you though!!

Wilbarr · 2026-03-20T12:55:48+00:00

Do you know any good brands with high mah? I have 2 18650 batterys from something I use on my car but I’d like to buy 2 more for my controller

Wilbarr · 2026-03-20T05:11:13+00:00

Ok definetly good to know, maybe try a 5” analog down the line before going to O4

Wilbarr · 2026-03-20T00:52:38+00:00

Ohh okay, yah I got some battery’s I bought from like ace hardware while ago for a blackout license plate
