    Camera lost communication

    Okay, back to trying to sort this out. I turned the board over and checked the voltage on most of the components. Nothing looked really strange until I got to the section I marked here on this photo of the board. The items outlined show no voltage and the three larger items showed nearly 17...

    Thanks for pointing out the other testing pads. Here are the voltage readings I have now. The A95_3.3VD pad has no power so I believe this could be directly related to my problem. I haven't yet done any research on that yet so I don't know what circuit that might belong to.

    Here is a photo of the test points I found to test. They all showed less than 0.2VD below the market values except the one marked with an X which showed no reading. Does this present a clear indication of the problem (buck converter?) or do I need to do some more testing?

    I tested the ribbon cable and it turned out to be fine. I'm glad to hear the buck converter is easy to test and replace. I'll test the buck converter and if that is not the culprit I will likely replace the board. I will report back about my findings on the buck converter or maybe seek more help...

    Thank you for this very helpful reply. I had previously confirmed it was not 1, or 2, but I need to thoroughly confirm 4 (the ribbon connectors) as I noticed one of them had one wire smashed between the top gimbal plate and the aircraft shell when it was assembled. Could potentially be a bad...

    I mean the on/off button on the aircraft battery when turning off the aircraft.

    Camera lost communication

    I was shooting a 360 pano when the FPV stopped but I could continue with taking photos. The FPV came back alive for short periods but was lost again. I could still take photos and video but that eventually ceased to function also. The camera control menu on the DJI GO app has gone gray and...
