0 Hi guys, I have an issue with my drone. I had a minor crash and the battery knocked the condenser, I straighten it, it’s still connected well. I tried to fly it again, the drone dropped down from the sky after one minute of flying just fine. Recently I tried to get it to work and after flying three batteries with no issues take off to landing I can’t get final beeps out of the ESC and the goggles don’t see drone’s battery voltage. What can I do to attempt to fix it?

0 Yeah I don’t get those two beeps even with the help of usb cable. I also can’t get it connect to the configurator :/
I wonder if I should swap the FC from my other drone, which would be somewhat easy. But I’m worried that if something got fired once this build cannot be trusted. I fly over water for work a lot.

786 In that case it will either be the 3.3V regulator which has fried (which powers the MCU), or the MCU itself is dead. Either will prevent you connecting Betaflight Configurator to the FC Plug in a USB cable and put your finger on top of the MCU chip to see if it starts getting really hot. If yes then it's very likely dead. If not then suspect dead 3.3V regulator on the FC.
