Just a little tip on this one guys. I spent 2 days chasing this no cam thing until i realized that ever time I tried a fix i left the ground wire on the same pad every time. Never had a ground pad die personally but it did so thought I would share this odd ball on both of the V1 Mamba mini's I got this month.

This vid made me realize that no cameras that I'm aware of have any LEDs indicating power on state. If the camera had an led , then you would know if the camera was getting power or not . Thx for sharing. 🤘😁👍

I had the black screen with OSD and was trouble shooting for two hours then thought to KZitem the problem. Your video came up first and I'm sure glad it did. I had to move the ground AND positive to another source...then BAM!!!! I had video. I'd been using Caddx Vista and havent messed with analog in a while so I completely forgot about changing to different pads. Thanks for sharing this content...

Yeah you know i bought like 5 of them when they were like 38 bucks. Not on issue on any of them. This second batch both had that ground bad and dirty vbat's. Must be a bad qc'ed batch. You know it's sad because as a reviewer it sticks to say like these are so good and such a right price then have them have a sh&^ batch come out and make you look like an idiot.

I had the same issue twice a few weeks ago with a couple of micro cameras - black screen with OSD coming through. Traced the problem to some caps/resistors on the back of the cam that had been damaged in crashes. I removed the soft plastic backing, resoldered the damaged component and issue was instantly fixed.

Check to make sure you have a fresh battery. If you are testing and using the "same" battery for building/testing it may drop below the required voltage. This happened to me yesterday. I knew it was wired correctly. Changed to a fresh battery and there it was. Fixed.

Good to see vids like this. Too many guys just do reviews as they get their free stuff from banggood and gearbest. It's no coincidence that all their free stuff is also what they call awesome or the best. Nothing wrong with getting free stuff but call it like it is. Dont promote crap!

Just had this happen earlier today. Had osd but my video went white which is weird.. cuz this isnt the first time ive lost my camera feed but its always been a black out. I got rid of the jst plug on my camera wire and soldered it directly to the Fc. It seems to be fine but only time wil tel cuz when it happens its so random. its the scariest thing about the fpv hobby. Thats the 5th time its happened between two quads. And its normally a loose wire

Yeah, I can't believe I chased it for 2 days then went wait the only thing I never changed was the ground. The real curve ball was I took out a new FC and soldered everything to it and had the same issue. My guess is that batch 2 of the mini's they changed that port and not the documentation or bad production of the units.

Flickering is usually dirty power. Have you tried adding a capacitor to where the battery meets the PDB or 4 in1 esc depending on what you're using? I mean I don't know everything but we were made to believe the idea for running the cam into the FC was to help give it clean power as well as osd but often it doesn't seem to help.

@TheQuadcopterReview

@@rickjames8897 Yes in some cases I think we are looking as poor quality regulators on the FC. Example. Like I said i have probably build 6 quads using the mamba mini. I loaded up on them when they were like 34 or 38 bucks. That first batch bullet proof. I bought to more recently and both it this second batch I have to add caps too because suddenly I had this bad ground and poor regulators. Fun with electronics right. I figure to keep the price where it was they maybe had to take some b-grade chips.

@TheQuadcopterReview
5 жыл бұрын
Maybe you have checked this but let's hope it's this easy. Try going into betaflight and sticking something right in the middle of your osd. Save and try it on your displays. If you now see them then your osd is being cut off on the display and phone. You may have to move things to fit your smallest display. Like I said you may have tried this already but somethings it's the small things you chase.
