This is my first post (if I put it in the wrong spot, my apologies)
I received the gremlin kit for Christmas, ive built multi rotors before and even helped a friend build his gremlin)
to start off im using a DXE radio (the cheap one with no screen) and the spectrum DSMX FPV Racing serial Receiver.
upon completing my build I was having trouble with beta flight, specifically the bind process. in the build video the instructions were to create a new model. I dont have the programming cable, is this flying a gremlin even possible without one? (programming cable)
also in beta flight all the sliders under the receiver tab were listed as 0 and i couldn't get the motors to spin
my problems only worsened, I had the board plugged into the computer and noticed beta flight said it only had 0.3 volts. so knowing that my reciever needed 3.3 volts, I plugged in my battery, everything looked fine (receiver went into bind mode) but then all lights died. I was looking at the screen when this happened but there was no smoke
now when I plug a battery in I get the auditory power up sound but No Lights and I cant connect to beta flight
Ive never had anything like this before. Please help!
Important update. after letting fc sit for several hours I plugged in a battery and light flashed for a moment. no sound and I cant seem to replicate that
