Hello,
Last Saturday I've managed to crash my Spark and now, it doesn't fly anymore. I get "check redundancy state" error everytime I power it on. I've red some topics that said it might be the GPS module broken(i have a hit right in that area) and I have opened the drone and saw that the module is intact but 2 of the capacitors of the board, are broken. Anyone knows how can i get a datasheet or a schematic of the GPS module? Sorry for my english and thank you in advance.

Hi sunete,
How do you know these 2 caps are bad? These are multi layer film capacitors, which do not leak since they have no fluid electrolyte in them. The yellow colour can be anything, coating or such.
However, these ML-caps are prone to shorting when microcracks form inside the cap because of mechanical stress.
No way to get datasheets. You can desolder them from a known good board and measure the capacity, plus the voltage they see (when unit is workin), plus some generous reserve.
HTH,
Wolferl |
