Hey guys, need your help once more: I just built an EMAX 250 with a Naze32. 2300KV Motors and 12A ESC are from RTFQ.
I soldered everything together on a small PDB (also RTFQ). At first one motor wouldn't spin and it turned out it was a bad solder joint on the PDB (although the cable sat in stable, almost rigid, which surprised me...)
On we go to maiden this thing: A few secods after lift off it suddenly drops to the left and flips 360 without my input. Video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPkZ5jNWqV0 (About 30 sec. in...)
It did this a few more times, eventually resulting in a not so pretty crash, smashing my receiver and ALL props.
Any hints? I doupt it's the Naze32 as I have used the same unit before on another frame. Could it be another bad solder joint, cutting power for a brief moment? Or the PDB all together?
Looking forward to your hints as to where to focus my error hunt...
