RX Lost on TinyHawk 2...?

[Clone2002]

Hi all,

Recently getting RX Lost on my OSD a minute or so into flight. No matter how far I am from the quad. Full disclosure I was flying it in the backyard the other da and definitely crashed into some wet grass a few times. Im also a new quad pilot overall so have more accidents for sure.
I’m guessing something got loose on the board and I need to open it up and figure out what to re-solder? Any advice or ideas would be welcomed!

Thanks

I know nothing about the tinyhawks but if it's an aio board with built in receiver you might have to replace the whole board.

Other than that you can check to see if maybe the rx antenna came loose. Common problem with crashes.

Yah was thinking vtx antenna came desoldered or otherwise got cut somehow. If no vtx antenna it will heat up the vtx circuitry (it's amplifying a signal but no antenna as load so heat just builds up) would make sense it shuts off after about a minute then too. Could be something else but would check both antenna down to the board (it is all in one/aio)

VTX is fine (i get RX LOST warning on my OSD And even get to watch it plummet (the first time it happened was from probably 30 feet which was too bad). so must be RX antenna. I’ll open it up and look at everything tonight and see what i discover. Good time to build on those soldering skills!

Yah reason I suspect vtx is cause the heat will bleed across the entire pcb and could cause issues over time as heat builds up, could be rx or something else too though hard to say till taking it apart.
