Help Do I need to replace antenna or whole VTX board ?

[boris999]

Hello all,

I am new to the FPV. My TinyGo today stopped connecting to controller. No major crash occurred. When battery is plugged in, drone "lights up", but never connects to controller. Video feed is working. Video how it looks like can be seen here:

I'd like to ask:

- How to determine which part is broken and needs to be replaced (antenna or whole board) ?


Thanks a lot.

OK, after close inspection of the drone it seems that after one of the "non-major" crashes radio receiver connector was moved. Not sure if it can be soldered back, but at least I know what's wrong now. Thanks anyway.

Most of this hobby is troubleshooting. If after you exhausted all possibilities, you are still stuck, post.

But post descriptively. What the problem is, what you have done already to rule problems out, what you think caused the issue, photos of the drone, especially the FC, ESC, Receiver, VTX, Camera, any soldering you've done. if it's Betaflight related, a dump would be nice, wrapped in bbcode code tags.

If you give us as much info as possible, you will find you get an answer quicker.
