who has ever been annoyed by the buzzer, hands up
one simple solution is ofc sticking a piece of tape on it, but this can also be quite tricky if its not all too well accessible
and it just creates lots of unnecessary rubbish
then you could also unplug it or add an off switch, on the other hand - ignoring warnings tends to lead to bad things :black_eyed:
you can also add in a 1k potentiometer or a switch that lets you change between "on" and 1 to X resistors
and vary the volume like that - ears happy and partner (or parents) happy
but make it rigid, since you wont want a crashing quad where the buzzer gets disconnected and you have to spend hours chewing grass to find it
another idea would be configuring one of the rotary knobs on the transmitter, to drive one of the servo ports and connect the signal of the according servo port to the base of a PNP or mosfet (might need an additional resistor, depending on the transistor used)
and the remaining two leads in series with the buzzer
which allows using the transmitter instead of a potentiometer, but probably wont allow suppressing those initial beeps just before the transmitter gets a connection
