    Gimbal

    I think that is true. The symptoms above show, that serial connection from drone to gimbal and further to camera is not working. That's why the FW versions cannot displayed. Onla the one from camera was received via WiFi. No FW displayed does not mean that there is something wrong with FW but FW...

    Convert Typhoon H to PixHawk 6C Flight Controller

    SR24 is a ZigBee receiver 2.4GHz. Here are two versions of it (the versions are exchangeable).

    Is there anyone breaking a Yuneec Typhoon H for spares?

    Sometimes it helps to carefully heat it up (Hair dryer or something like that).

    Camera mount buffer pins

    This idea is not from me. It's very popular in German forums (starts ~10 years ago).

    Camera mount buffer pins

    I use small cable ties (zip tie) to replace the pins. You need two for one pin and two plastic washer. Attach one washer below, zip-tie from bottom to up through the buffer and attach the second buffer. Then attach the zip part to it. Let the whole thing ~2mm room to move. Cut the remaining...

    Battery level guide

    Cell voltage should never be below 3.3V. 14V means 3.5V which is OK if all cells have the same voltage. But be aware, the voltage in load condition may be lower that it is after landing. Check voltage in flightlogs to get a deeper insight. If you drain batteries too much all the time you will...

    Convert Typhoon H to PixHawk 6C Flight Controller

    I don't know if it is possible to add SR24 receiver to PX4 FW by settings. PX4 autopilot software has a subsystem for SR24. If so, you could reuse ST16. In any case you will lose the ability to pan the camera. To use another flight controller is of course possible if you replace ESCs and...

    Cgo2 power board

    This open wire to pin3 of the Q500 connector is connected to ground at the controller board. It may be open on the Q500 side but it is twisted to the PWM signal wire. This gives the signal wire a proper impedance and makes it possible to carry signals in higher frequencies with simple wires...

    Cgo2 power board

    The PWM (tilt) input is connected to processor via 1kOhm resistor. You can measure if there is that connection still present: - solder pad to resistor (a) - resistor = 1kOhm between (a) and (b). I would try to solder the two wires direct to the solder pads from the former connector. br HE

    ST16 Controller with other devices?

    You will always need a processor connected after the receiver. ST10/ST16/ST24 will send binary messages to the receiver. It is not the same as standard RC controller. Even if you find another ZigBee receiver (which I think it will not be the case) with PWM output for servos, speed controller...

    St16 pro auxiliary switch question

    The AUX button will appear in channel 12 and is available on SR24 side but the flight controller FW will not use it. I use the AUX button to enable more flight modes for Thunderbird FW. This is a PX4 autopilot based FW customized for Typhoon H by @Pöllö (a expert from Finland). I mean, it is...

    Option to make a repair on the Typhoon H GPS/Compass V02 Module?

    There are two different versions out there, the older one has HMC5883 compass chip and newer have IST8310. You must identify which one you have. The chip in the upper left corner. This is the ID for the HMC5883. If it is different then you have IST8310. And this is a IST8310: I don't...

    H520E RTK - problem GPS

    For short time I saw the hint that switching to RTK needs vehicle reboot. Have you tried that (switch off - switch on)?

    Galileo

    The GNSS module of Typhoon H has GPS chip MAX M8Q. This chip can process signals from GPS (QZSS), Glonass, Galieo and BaiDou. It can use 3 of them at the same time. It says the Typhoon H FW activates only GPS (QZSS) and Glonass. To change this you need a new firmware for the flight controller...
