3dr Power Module problem

Hi everyone,

does the wiring look correct to you? I just hooked everything up and it short-circuited really bad. Did someone from 3dr solder this incorrectly or was this my fault ? :-(

Help would be appreciated.

Thank you

    I did inform 3DR and they are sending me a new power module. Can't wait to get it so I can finally "lift off" :-)

    Thats really a bad mistake, whoever soldered it...

    Thank you Tim for your reply. Yes the power module came just like this from 3DR. I sadly did not inspect it before hooking it up to the rest of the hexacopter :-( But who would think that something like this would be overlooked in the factory?

    But just to be safe: the red and black cables should not be like this on the 3DR power module, right???

    If the red wire came to you common with the black wire, there may be a QC issue involved. I'm sorry to hear of your misfortune.
