FatShark Mod

Its been a fun weekend flying with boys, improving my flying and getting some more confidence in the air. Now I have to charge my packs and I only have one charger. It is a long and boring process ….

…. So I thought I would join the hype train and do the fatshark mod. I had ordered the button a week earlier, so it was just sitting there. I pretty much followed the Oscar Liang tutorial, except for the part that my switch didn’t have the same pin layout and that part I just winged (hoping that my logic fitted the profile and that I didn’t burn out the board). It is a tight fit and I had to trim the pins down and then had to make sure the wires went into a spot that wasn’t hitting anything so I could make the door click back on. Other than that I think the scariest part is drilling the 16 mm hole in the door, mainly because if you screw that up, it will either look crap or it wont fit back in. Anyway at the end of the day I completed it and am happy with its functionality.

This is what it is all about.
Pushing the wires back in.
Added the on/off button to my goggles.
