    Identifying Toy Drone battery terminal

    Well, I am ready to give up now. I have scoured Ebay, Amazon and Bangood. It seems impossible to find a battery that will fit the drone aperture and has the Micro JST 1.25 connector. Either the battery has the right connector but is too big for the drone aperture, or the battery is the right...

    Identifying Toy Drone battery terminal

    Sorry, but the main thrust of the thread is about my problem in attempting to procure a replacement for the original naffed battery. If anyone has any advice on what I can do to get the quad and transmitter to recognise each other, I will be most grateful.

    Identifying Toy Drone battery terminal

    This quad was produced by an Italian firm trading as Mondo Motors. It was, for a short while, marketed in the UK by Debenhams. Attempting to get any information, about the product, from either of these companies, appears impossible. After much research, the only link I can find is on youtube...

    Identifying Toy Drone battery terminal

    The transmitter itself has brand new batteries and appears to be functioning OK. Would you have any advice on what steps I could take to resolve this? The quad and transmitter worked satisfactorily together until I lost the use of the old battery.

    Identifying Toy Drone battery terminal

    The original battery was 3.7v 250 mAh. I couldn't find them anywhere (that would fit the drone battery aperture. The nearest I could get (with the right dimensions) was 3.7v 150 mAh. I know mAh stands for milliamp hours and amps are the flow rate of the current. Are you saying that the reduced...

    Identifying Toy Drone battery terminal

    Hopefully someone may reply? Attached photo of fly lead attached to new battery. The battery charges no problem. But as per above, the motors are coming on full blast as soon as I plug in the battery to the quad. The drone has an on/off switch which works satisfactorily. Also I am not getting...

    Identifying Toy Drone battery terminal

    I made up the fly lead and charged up the battery no problem. But when I connected the battery to the drone, the props are coming on full blast immediately. The drone has an on/off switch. I turn on the R/C first, then, turn on the switch on the drone. What would usually happen then is that the...

    Identifying Toy Drone battery terminal

    Thanks Rick M. I have already ordered some items and I hope I've done right? (If I had seen your post, I would have followed your advice, but too late now, see what you think) So I have a toy/mini drone that takes batteries (with the required dimensions) with JST 1.25 connectors (Thank you for...

    OK Thanks. I guessed that. I was hoping to get the batteries without messing about I suppose.

    Identifying Toy Drone battery terminal

    Believe me, the batteries with the correct dimensions to fit the drone aperture and with the 1.25 JST connector are just plain unavailable. This must be because there is no demand for them. If anyone believes they are available I will be most grateful if they can advise where.

    Thanks Jackson and Rick M. Now I finally know what the connector is actually called.

    Identifying Toy Drone battery terminal

    The battery has a tiny terminal/connector. It seems to be very difficult to pinpoint this terminal from a larger one when buying batteries on line. The battery is a 3.7V 250 Mh. Common enough but how do I identify the particular terminal/connector when buying new batteries? The photos show the...

    Camera does not work on new Hubsan H501S x4

    Conclusion IMHO: the canon camera has corrupted the card. Having done a bit more homework, this is now more than IMHO. The canon camera has definitely corrupted the card. The canon camera can only handle a 2GB card and, in my stupidity, I put in a 16GB card that already had files written to it...

    Camera does not work on new Hubsan H501S x4

    I think you have hit the nail on the head. From what I have now read/watched on youtube, you should always eject the card, by doing so you are telling the device that the card is off the radar, so to speak. Also, as you say, you should stop the recording, then wait, up to a minute even, before...

    Camera does not work on new Hubsan H501S x4

    Thanks Spork. I have tried to format the card in the laptop (using all 3 available format systems): result : "cannot format" message; in the Canon camera; result: "card error" ; in the Android phone: result: formats to 20% and goes no further. Conclusion (in my humble opinion): Card is corrupted...

    Camera does not work on new Hubsan H501S x4

    Most folks take the card from the quad and go straight into their computer. Sorry if I wasn't clearer. I did put the card straight into the computer (as well as via the camera another time). But whether straight into the laptop or via the camera, the result was the same: no footage. The card...

    Camera does not work on new Hubsan H501S x4

    Thanks for confirming the card is OK, which is what I asked. So , basically I don't have a standalone card reader? No, I don't. No one told me I had to have one. But the squirrely way you are trying to read the card might might cause them to pause. Why? I am a customer who bought one of their...

    Camera does not work on new Hubsan H501S x4

    Unfortunately not. There is an SD card slot in the controller but this appears to serve no function in the 501s drone model. In fact one Youtube film on the subject suggests it's only use is to carry a spare card for the actual drone! I have been right through all the programs on the...
