Thanks . I fried a flight controller g 5 volt regulator when camera wires came off and shorted . I saved it wrapped in tape labeled thinking about those heat blower and tweezer bec fixes fir the future 3419 adwhen i had the skills . I fried a regulator hooking a diversity 5.8ghz fpv reciever and dvr to it on 3s . Too much stuff . No leds but 10 seconds later a tiny puff of smoke .
hi thaks for the tutorial... i have an issue tho... i powered the fc with a bec, ok it works now, but i cant see the lipo voltage in osd.... it shows 0V ... is it because its powered via bec and it doesnt read the lipo?... is there any ways i can solve it? thanks.
Currently troubleshooting quad with clf4. High throttle video scramble, caps won't fix, it's not antenna, or vtx, either escs, or fc, would this 5v thing be possibly fix?
It’s definitely worth a shot. It would be a clean power source. I had a problem like that once. Chased my ass for a long time, I never have video signal issues but this one bird kept pissing with me. Ended up being harmonics in the frame believe it or not.
I was using a smoke stopper fixing a quad for a friend and there was a short Thought the smoke stopper was going to save me ,how wrong was i Now when i plug the fc into the computer i get the sound but it wont connect and there are no lights coming on the fc What has most likely blown? and can it be fixed As always , nice vid Jay
HEY, JJ, I don’t care what Bardwell says about you. You are alright by me brotha! 😜 I kid, I kid...lol..... You continue to inspire me with tips, tricks and quick repairs with out all the extra over my head BS ,:. Btw, not trying to blow your dress up but, I’ve learned more in the past 3 months, hanging out with You and your “Henchman” , than in my whole first year. Thank You! PS; are you taking applications for additional “Henchmen”? If So, I’d love to apply. 👍🎸🦈
Hey JJ! I think that you should consider using a 5v UBEC instead. Potentiometers fail in high vibration environments. Here is a reference. www.zettlex.com/articles/engineers-dislike-potentiometers/
Yes that’s why I got glue them. I use these in quads and fixed wing as well. Long as u secure them they do well. I agreee woth ya tho. I’ve used becs as well, and becs are less to piss around with as well

Thanks so much ... Was just about to order a hole new fc. I'll try this instead
If that’s all that’s wrong this will work.
I just took off with the second batt of the day and it just went dark and dropped outta the sky. Got it in and there was no 5v anywhere
When ya plug into the usb does the 5v show up??? Connects to the puter and all that
If I plugged in USB it connects to betaflight and 5v comes back on
Yup. That’s the problem. Do my trick and it’ll come back to life. Keep me posted
Yes ! This is a life saver
How would I do this on a geprc aio board?

i have a ? what glue do you use to hold the usb if it was lose and other stuff too the FC.
Ooooh the curse of the omnibus f3 USB port. Fuckers come off easy. Mix up some 2 part epoxy and use a toothpick to put it around the USB port area.
ok thanks
Super helpful jj!
Thanks bro🤘🤘
Thanks
Awesome instructional video. Thanks for sharing.
