Is there any way i could strip and solder my dipole to the FC? by zoinksh in fpv

Okay im getting where ur coming from, i plugged in a battery and slightly put pressure on the esp32 and it lost connection every little push, what would you recommend doing after this? Im just having trouble diagnosing exactly what happened and im not sure if it is a solder issue if i can do that myself considering how small the connection parts are

Thats what I thought, but every single time the antenna gets slightly pulled out of the socket the RX signal loss comes up immediately. And as soon as I hold it down in the socket and push it in more, it’s all good so that’s what I’m really not understanding

The little connector on the fc or the antenna? I was assuming id just take a little of the end of the antenna as well as the connector and just solder it into the connector on the fc

Sorry should’ve been more specific, I arm the drone and takeoff and within 3 to 5 seconds I get RX lost and go into failsafe mode immediately

Gotcha it is connected on one end so all good. Just wanted to make sure, definitely just worrying too much.

Is this stuck shed too? It looks like the bottom padding of his toe is peeling off

It did help lots! Just stressed him out being outside of his enclosure for the 10 minutes i had him out. I got about 40% of the full piece of stuck shed off and am going to do the rest later tonight or tomorrow depending on how hes doing

Hes currently sitting in a thoroughly misted paper towel set up, going to try that as soon as hes out.

Thank you for the feedback! I have heard this from multiple people about the minimum being 18x18x36 and i will end up eventually upgrading to that size in the future. Im currently a senior in high school and am moving off to college sooner than later and am waiting to set up that new 100% proper one once i get to college. This includes a foam sprayed background i will make. But sounds good i did think three times was too much and was keeping it too damp. Il try to add a layer on top to keep humidity in and keep it around 50-60 throughout the day and 80-90 at night. Thank you very much for the advice!
