Well it looks like it happened AGAIN! A couple of weeks ago I used the Arctic Silver on my WiFi but it looks like the darn thing still failed. Today it's dead as a door nail.
I'll go through the forums and check all the possibilities and rebind and whatever but it's not looking good. I suspect I'll have to buy another one.
If I'm going to replace this thing AGAIN I want to make sure to get one of the new V3 ones. I wrote to Daves Discount Motors but he hasn't seen the new WiFi Modules with the holes in the case.
So any suggestions on where a guy could pick up the new V3 WiFi module?
===================================================================
Update - I was just about to order another WiFi module. Then reading on another thread I thought ... maybe it's the 4 pin cable??? I grabbed some surgical tweezers. I pinched the 4 pin connector between the camera and the drone body. I carefully wiggled it loose. Plugged it back in and presto I'm back in business.
I also... ahem... plugged my WiFi Repeater in to charge (haven't done that in a while). I know it was the 4 pin cable because if it was charging up the battery then I'm just too stupid to live.
Thanks guys! You saved me $200. Well done.
