G+_Brian “Yikesfpv” Gipe Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 For anyone doing the Diatone 150 build. You might need to put a voltage regulator or something between the main power board and the transmitter. If you read the bold letters on this page, http://rotorgeeks.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=335 It says the littlebees can put voltage spikes into the main power board. I flew mine for the first time last Saturday. It was working fine. Crashed a few times but all was well. This thing is solid. Back home I tested the video and changed the lenses out as they were a slight bit blurry to me. I spun up the motors to make sure they were working fine. Later I tested the video again and got nothing. The vtx would not change channels. So I got another vtx and it was working but no video. Evidently it took out my camera as well. I have another camera ordered but nothing to test atm. I'll let you know if it works out. Just something to be cautious about. http://rotorgeeks.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=335 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Travis Hershberger Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 So, just another reason to use the opto speed controllers and a BEC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Brian “Yikesfpv” Gipe Posted May 3, 2016 Author Share Posted May 3, 2016 I'm running the 20A littlebees. The FC is getting 5v power from the main pdb. So is the new vtx but the new one have a regulator on it and it supplies 5v power to the camera so I think I'm good. And just soldered it in tonight and working good. And it's gonna be nice like every day this week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
