Hi all,While I was testing APM 2.0 with my ESC which provides 5V power, I think I accidentally short the 5V and GND on sensor rail. The result is that:1. APM 2 immediately power off, no burnt smell…Continue

Hello,I'm using the APM Mission Planner to help control an unmanned drone and I need to have my own video feed set up to do so. I've been trying to understand how your video feed works, especially how you can set it up with the HUD overlay, but I can't seem to crack it. Could someone explain the flow of the video feed through the program for me? I just want to know what parts I need to duplicate/mimic in my own form from the MainV2, FlightData and ConfigPlanner screens.Thanks a lotSee More

"Perhaps I wasn't clear enough. It was late last night. I WAS able to get power through the input channel, but when running a servo splitter for power from the esc BEC's I get no power, no LEDS nothing. So far zero response from 3dr. :/ -D"

"Hi Dane, Our problems are little different. I cannot get power through output or input rail (LED not lit up). And my Vcc and GND seem to be short. I already send my APM 2.0 back to 3DR for RMA. Hopefully they can figure out a way to repair…"

"Same issue here. I can get power from the USB, as well as the input rail, but when powered from the output rail. The green light glows faint. None of the diodes or anything looks burned and I have never seen smoke or shorted out the APM. Zero…"

Hi all,While I was testing APM 2.0 with my ESC which provides 5V power, I think I accidentally short the 5V and GND on sensor rail. The result is that:1. APM 2 immediately power off, no burnt smell and no visible burnt trace or parts.2. Board won't get power through 5V from output rail through ESC anymore3. Vcc (+ on input and sensor rail) is separated by only 33ohm from GND (which multimeter read as short)4. When plugged into USB, LED indicators light up but no uart connection I presume that I…See More
