Hey gentlemen,
Hoping one of you can help me out. I tried to search on this topic but the first 40 pages of results weren't terribly helpful.....
I have read many of you talk about the questionable soldering that comes from DJI and how you have either re-soldered or siliconed the wire connections to protect them. A few questions:
- Does anyone have a photo of the inside of the Phantom Vision 2+ sans any modifications? I want to know what I'm going to find when I lift the hood.
- Do you recommend silicone or solder, or both? Why?
- If solder, did you remove the existing ones or just re-enforce them with better application? Did you use a specific type of solder, or whatever Home Depot sells?
- Are there any connections that are notoriously bad that I should be sure to hit?
- How complete of a disassembly is required for this? I am nervous about anything that requires me to flip over a circuit board that might be screwed down for fear of not getting it all back correctly.
Thanks in advance! I consider myself relatively handy, but didn't want to just dive in without asking some advice first.
