Hi all,

I recently purchased and have finally put together my Arducopter from Jdrones.

My compass came with wires and plug attached but I decided to unsolder these and attach directly to board as recommended, in doing so have bent two of the pins and possibly lifted two of the pads and broken the track on the APM board, I've traced one of the tracks (SDA) to a pin on one of the connectors and replaced with a tiny wire but the other broken track, the one (that goes to SDL on the compass)I cannot see where it goes to solder a replacement wire to it... I know this is all dodgy but don't want to hand over another $160 for a new board...

The GND and V+ are fine.


Thanks,

Luke

Do not use the pin !, solder soft wire directly to the track on the apm and mag ( shielded is preferred, like usb) and mount the compass in a plase with non noise from other electronic
