Hi dear FPV users!
I had no luck recently and I have now 2 new AIO flight controllers that are broken even before the maiden flight! And with different electronics.
I go baby steps, testing resistance and electronic after each solder. The one I’m trying to fix is a GePRC F411 35A AIO.
The 5v bec died after adding the buzzer and there was no short! It worked for couple of seconds and the FC started to reboot up to a point where it failed. I measured just over 1v at 5v pad. Since it is working from USB port, I added an external micro 5v bec and it’s now working (no buzzer.. I’m afraid to break it again).
The external bec is connected to the BAT pad and the output to a 5v pad. When the output is connected to the 5v pad, the USB port will not work and the bec gets warm!
Am I doing something wrong or do I have to disconnect external bec each time I connect through USB? Is it ok to connect the bec input to a BAT pad or will it take too much amp?
Thanks
