Fellow forum members:
I'm a bit lost here. This craft has flown once. GPS access was poor, so I decided to improve the EMI shielding and use an external NAZA-lite. I also performed all the firmware upgrades, but I haven't downloaded the PT2 app since no updates were indicated in the app. Initial calibration works, Sats went from normally 6 to 8 in 30 sec. During this time, I had the stock compass connector disconnected, but I left the stock compass attached to the landing arm. Compass dynamics looked fine with new ext compass. I brought the craft inside the home to recalibrate the IMU. Basic reported no problems. Advanced Calibration reported "Temp of MC is too high, power down, cool for 5 min and redo." Temp was reading 23.3C in my office. I did this several times with same results.
All rear LEDs fine.
I don't know the functions of the major components i see with the top of the craft removed. But looking from the battery forward I see the NAZA Phantom FC. Immediately to the left is a bright shinny box about 2.5" x 1.5". That is the box that gets warmish.
What is the function of that component to the left of the NAZA control? (Transmitter by chance?) All other functions of the craft seem to work fine. WiFi is fine. Control of motors fine.
What is your guess about what is happening? What should I do?
Thank you,
