I did a new test flight actually two flights. In the first a Typhoon H480 with a CGO3+ camera was used. Originally there were 5-motor faults on the H480 but changing the main ESC board solved the problem probably caused by a damaged MOSFET power transistor on motor #1. The video problem with...

In the middle of the night I had the opportunity to test three different drones/cameras against the CGO app under Android 14 on a Lenovo P11 Second Gen. The results are: Typhoon H480 with a CGO3+ camera: V0.1.0.0062 most recent Network Error , got connection once ...

I have tried the CGO app on a Lenovo P11 second generation running Android 14. The newest version didn't work for me but at least the version V0.1.0.0049 seems to work OK with a Typhoon Q500 with a CGO2+ camera. I will try to get the program to work with a Q500 4k and Typhoon H480 and report the...

Thanks for the info. I think I will simply start doing a few more flights using the orientation information above. It is perfectly possible that I found the "hole" in the radiation pattern due to unsuitable orientation. Again ... first try to replicate the error ... if it works don't fix it :).

Thanks, yes I have the mushroom antenna and probably that was the reason. I will check antenna alternatives. Of course this may be a non-problem with my normal flying and what I saw only an unfortunate glitch.

So we have been working in the same technical area, Telecom. I worked for Ericsson in product development and as an innovation coach in Kirkkonummi slightly more to the west.

I got a set of new propellers yesterday. Today the weather is fairly OK so it is possible to do flight test with the Typhoon H480 where I replaced the mainboard/ESC. The GUI program seemed to work Ok but I had some problems binding the drone to the controller when I had created a new H480 model...

The damage to super magnets in the gimbals is a very interesting topic. I happened to see an article that possibly explains the damage mechanism. Notice that I haven't had any of those problems so I haven't disassembled the gimbal (if it works don't fix it) so it is perfectly possible that I...

Thanks. This was also my guess after measuring the original capacitors. I will replace the capacitors with better ones if I succeed in replacing the motor #1 MOSFET #2. I did a new test flight ... five motor error again and a broken propeller :) . I decided to replace the main ESC board. This...

I happened to see a warning regarding the 330uF electrolyte capacitors, there are 6 black capacitors in a Typhoon H480. I replaced all of them and measured the capacitance, ESR and VLOSS of both the old and the new capacitors. All the old capacitors had values clearly below 330uF (5-10%). I...

By the way very nice to see a program written i Lazarus/Free Pascal. I have been using Lazarus for almost all programs needing a GUI the last few years and I have been reading the source with great interest.

Wow! Thanks for the link to the Linux GUI works perfectly under Linux Mint!

Sorry the paste of the log lines clearly didn't work. The important info is motor status 255 --> 254.

I run a test using the TyphoonHGUI. My initial problem was to find a Windows computer, I run Linux. I found an old laptop with windows 7 that worked. Has anybody been able to run the TyphoonGUI under Wine ;) ? The program reported the ESC as OK. Testing the different motors resulting in all...

So far it has been three different motors :) the last one very obvious. My next step will be to first re-solder every single power feed to the motors simply because some have been detached. Solder joints have to be checked both for the male and female connectors and the soldering of the female...
