    I am thinking, mount the roll potentiometer cog onto a brushless motor. Someone was saying it wouldn't work because of the pendulum effect, dunno where he got that from it can still be balanced on its axis....which it should be anyway even if using servos. I am definitely going to convert mine...

    Hi. I took the cover off the USB circuit and where the three wires connect to the pcb I resoldered those joints, one was a dry joint. Use preferably a very fine tip 12v iron. Hope this helps

    I got a working USB cable from UavShop (Thanks Alex!) and determined that it was my cable at fault. I went over the board with a soldering iron and redid a dry joint, now it works again!

    I tried the FY91 device. I identified the three wires needed and put a new connector on. It talked to Putty OK and fedback text when I shorted the data lines but I still couldn't get it to talk to the Skyline. Alex from UavShop.co.uk is going to send me his working unit to try. If it proves to...

    Thanks I did that and although Putty recognised the USB/ser device I couldnt get any text feedback on typing with the data leads shorted as suggested. So, I found another USB/ser gizmo from something else and managed to get correct chatback on that.. but the skyline wouldnt talk to that either...

    Zero UAV ZeroUAV YS-X4 Owners Thread

    FLew it today all seems good. Except for a glitch when I was hovering in Alti mode. The quad did an unexpected dive to the right. Dunno what caused that but will investigate further. Maybe the RX, Router, power and Wifi module are too close together but I don't have many options on a little quad.

    I have been using the skyline since it first came out but the USB not talking to the unit is a new thing that just started. The Skyline connects OK and the LED turns Blue. The UI reports the USB software connected OK but not the Skyline. I can Toggle the servos on and off via the USB but nothing...

    Me too. I have written twice to Brendan as suggested at that link, but no reply. I guess they have given up on us early adopters.
