Well the led itself was mounted on the gimbal bracket just under compass but driver and lithium cell was in the middle right under the mainboard. Should i hook q500 to pc and see if the values change when i bring that torch setup near the drone?

Thanks man but i believe this issue was somebody to do with flight control as i ive had many flights WITH torch and all flights went well

Thanks for your story mate! My torch was driven by a seperate 16850 cell. In a nutshell only thing that was different from other flights ive taken is that the air temperature was very low.

Like i said previously not the first time flying with this led and all was good previous times. Yes remote showed me ready status on gps and atleast 12 sattelites when taking off

Dont think its LED.it was mounted rightbwhere gimbal would be and weight is similar to gimbal. Only active electronics in that led is a driver containing driver chip and 1 mosfet. Ive had 8+ full flights with the same led in the same field and all was good.

Hello, this evening i decided to take my q500 for a spin with a huge led attached to it. I started her up, flew up about 50m and then s*** hit the fan. The quad flew VERY fast to one side away from me, it flew about 150m away from me while there was zero joystick input from me, but then i...

Thank You I REALLY appreciate it but I already tossed out most of the camera ( the top gimbal motor board was fried too) previous owner did some crazy wiring to camera and fried all boards lol

Im from Lettland.

Thanks man! But its pretty hard to come by these boards or broken cameras on ebay here in europe...

Nevermind. I found the problem. The camera had crashed and previous owner had been soldering wires back. He screwed something up bigtime and this is the result... Was cheap tho. Anyways guys thanks for help!!

There appears to be 2 small round bronze sensors or microphones pointing forward. They both go straight to UART (right next to power connector on the bottom camera pcb) connector on the bottom gimbal board. Really not sure what those 2 things are and if its the reason camera is not showing in st10.

I wish I had such success lol. Do You have any idea what are those 2 little sensor type things on the front of the top board (they appear to be connected to UART connector) ? they are round and very small.

Yes and yes.

thats a real bummer. I tried connecting 5v to the camera, it starts initializing, fan turns on but the leds go into green, red loop...

HEY WTFD ! Great to hear from ya ! from the picture I assume that the top board does not provide any communication to the camera module at the bottom.... And one more thing - is it true that I cant just simply put on a new top board ? I saw some discussions about how the "boards are all matched"...
