I'm electrically challenged, but getting better. Might have to talk to me like I'm 7 years old. when you say both hot leads, on batt/multi, I'm not exactly sure what to do, sorry hope I'm not frustrating you & I know your being super helpful. I'm definitely stroking out on this one. I think I...

Muliti meter ok? If so I guess just watch the current draw? If so I think I have what I need to start troubleshooting. Is it possible that the little zenmuse 3.5mm connector and the iosd wiring is pulling that crazy draw? Not sure but I just thought that harness is connecting the video signal...

Customizing is fun. Mine greets me with a clip from the big lebowski when I power it on Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yesterday, I toasted a brand new 4S 5000 mah 35-70 while setting up the naza (not flying). Something sucked out voltage FAST. Not sure how to troubleshoot so looking for some advice. I'll layout as much of the situation as possible, maybe someone can help me track down the issue: Putting...

Light bulb just went off in my head! The vtx says it can work off of a 4s, but I bet jt can't handle it. Maybe needs a voltage regulator to take it down to 11.1 ? Sound like that might be it? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

have a feeling it just might be that vtx. Do those get warm while they idle? My vtx is wired into my h3-2d for fpv. Wonder if I crossed something there. I doubt it though.. I was pretty careful following that diagram. So bummed if I have to tear it down. I'm gonna need another battery before...

So dumb question. How would I use the multimeter to determine if something is pulling too much current on the battery? What am I looking for as far as a suspect draw? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My FPV receiver was warm, but the led channels were lit up ok. Nothing was hot - (like burning hot). I do have a lot of led strips on the 550 maybe as it sat on the bench it just was drawing too much? I have a multimeter. I'll have to dispose of this one and order a new battery. Sent from...

I have my 4s powering up a bunch of strips on my 550 build. They are fine (but may be draining my battery) Actually, they may have ruined it as I was setting up on the assistant and wasn't paying attention to the voltage :( Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Something weird is going on. Possibly a short? The battery drained out from 3.7 to the numbers listed above in about 30 minutes of idle power on the 550 hooked to the naza assistant on the bench. Is that possible? Nothing seemed wrong on the 550, I assume if it was a short the craft wouldn't...

Bummer I was afraid of that. Weird cause I didn't think an idle 550 hooked to the assistant would draw that much. My 450 didn't draw much at all. I have it in a LiPo bag, I assume it's not dangerous until I dispose of it? I'll toss it out and be more cautious with discharging them. Sent...

I have a 4s nanotech 5000mah 35-70c battery. It was at 3.7 per cell and I was using it to calibrate in the assistant software. I did this with my 450 with similar voltage per cell but saw it was drawing next to nothing and was fine. What I didn't realize is my 550 is chock full of stuff...

Bart, just add your email to the aloft hobbies waiting list. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

awesome, can't wait to hear about it.

simple one, but can't figure it out. How are you guys getting the LED strips (the ones with the 3M adhesive strip) on the back to stick to the arms? Mine keep popping off. I thought about using a glue gun or a little superglue, but don't want to make a mess of anything, especially if it's...

It's a great radio. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey Bart, I think I read or heard somewhere in the thread or thread vids a mention of having a second radio and tx so we can have a camerman operate the gimble. Can we still do that? I'd love to give that a go.

You mean don't use? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Cool. I also have the BTU but no can bus. Guess I need one in order to use that Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank you. Do you happen to know when your using the gopro as the fpv cam (and recording), does it record just the video, or does it record the iosd data as well? Hoping no, I don't want the data in the video footage. Also, does this sound ok: IOSD into the Naza PMU, then the zenmuse CGU V1...
