Trying out a New shutter switch. Will make a Optical separated relay if necessary."
"Haha! No comments about the trouser. I was just crouching under mye Office desk, praying the machine would not find the way there. Felt a little like John Connor for a brief moment there.. :)"
"Ok, thanks. I agree,. No, I don't think the APM is to blame either. I think dere is some kind of Brownout, short Circuit, common dirty ground problem or something going on here."
The vtx is Powered from straight from the battery. The shutter cable is getting Power from the receiver, who in turn gets Power from the APM. I think…"
