Fix For No USB Power On Flight Controller
Ғылым және технология
If the flight controller will power with a 5v power source from a Li-Po battery but not the USB, chances are a diode is fried. Here is how to replace a diode.
I cant speak for every flight controller but the diode I used on this one is a BAT54C.

@Tony Montana me too bro, I want to get training software/hardware development so I can develop firmware.
I've gotten more help from this guy than anybody else, god damn I wish you were still here
Was about to thank this guy for all the great videos explains things really well ,then I read comments he,s passed away ,now feel sick to the stomach ,tragic so sad ,so young,god rest his soul,such a loss to family and friends
Such a nice guy. I am sad for the loss.
Thanks for all you do .
You are awesome sir!
Great video with a thumbs up from me so thanks again for another helpful video. I have 4 naze32 rev6 I kept that stop working. I repair a lot of electronics so i kept them planing to check them out one day and see if they where repairable and checked out on line for maybe what go's bad most on them. Putting these small parts on is not easy without a usb microscope. Just the fact that you found the problem, repaired it is more then most people can do. So thanks again, But I have to wounder why someone gave this video a thumbs down. OOOO!!! they must be perfect.
Hi just started on FPV..I have Eachine X F4 Flight controller and had crash first time and now I don't have power on Flight controller using Lipo only 3 beeps starting beeps on motors and no LED on flight controller but there is power when connected to USB and led is on... what should I do is PDB or Flight controller is broken?
Hi Project Blue Falcon I have a faulty X-Racer F303 V2... searching with a magnifier, i think i have a missing diode. Is there a way i can send you a photo, so you can help me identify the component? Its the one just left of the down left corner of the uart chip (F3), near PWM 4/5
Hi, I have the same problem so can I still plug the USB in and the battery in and complete beta flight setup? Thanks!
Kick N wing buddy....Right on
I have one spracing f3 evo that only powers from usb not from linear esc or bec, external regulator...nothing :(
will you get continuity on a flight controller between red and black?
Good job n good video
How to identify the diode in matek f405 aio fly controller
WOW, another great video tailored to the exact problem I have! Thanks! Do you have a suggestion how I determine the correct diode for my xracer f303 v2.1?

Its the diode on the bottom side of the board underneath the USB. Use a BAT54C diode.

Project Blue Falcon on an Xracer 2.1 I am able to power this via usb and on some (coz on the other pinnage it wont) pins off the motor rail but won't give 5 / 3 volts on uarts? Any suggestions?
Hello there where omnibus f4 mini flight controller is usb diode. I could not find it, it's too small. they all look alike.
My Spracing F3 connects, saves changes, allows for the Blheli passthrough, etc yet I have no activity lights whatsoever....
hello, your burn part it's same? because i have same problem with speedybee f4 and it s very hard to find part RB495D/D3Q . the idea it's, this diode is compatible replace for original part, like RB495D/D3Q
I hate Naze32 ive had so many headaches with them, now using Matek and I love them, they seem to be way ahead of the rest.
What if it was the other way around? I get power via usb but not my lipo. Any help would be appreciated lol
Is the diode same as any flight controller ??
Mine is not connecting to my computers com ports any sugjestions? It had previousl!
I can't get power from the Lipo on my sp f3evo but I get power from usb just fine so no power on the rail with the battery help please

Are you powering it from a 5v regulator?

jeffrey odachowski same problem. Won't power on with lipo. Needs USB to turn it on.
Will this work on a board that doesn't light up when you apply USB and battery power? I have the omnibus f3 osd

Maybe, because my experience has been the USB dying, but the LiPo side still working. You could have another issue, like a fried SMT chip.

Hi, did you find the diode? I have omnibus f4 but I have no continuity from usb port to any diode, could this be that the chip has other major damage?
Project Blue Falcon next thing for you now is buying a stereo scoop.I bought a euromex not cheap but there are cheaper ones on e-bay.
