I have been flying FPV for about 3 months now and I started off with a bind and fly unit from GetFPV dot com. It is the QAV-S Mini 4". It came equipped with the Caddx Vista FPV transmitter. Well after crashing multiple times the little 4" QAV-S is dead. Can't buy replacement arms yet and the motors have been all sold out for quite a while now. So... Here is my dilemma, I purchased the HobbyWing XRotor Micro 60A 4 in 1 ESC&FC (BL32/F4 G3), I know how to hook up the Caddx Vista to the FC, but there is one thing I am unsure of, do I have to hook the Vista's SBUS wires to the FC? I should probably also mention I do not use the DJI remote, I am a FRSky controller user and It is currently using the SBUS port on my FC. That is where the Vista is supposed to hook up to. Do I just leave those wires from the Vista not connected or do I connect them there and then re-solder my FRSky receiver to another UART? Any help with this will be appreciated. I have scoured the web for about 6 hours today trying to figure this out. I couldn't find anything about it anywhere.
Xrotor Micro 60A, FRSky and the Caddx Vista....

Should be all good leaving the receiver signal wires from the vista for the control link disconnected I have similar setup with air unit minus the DJI control link just using it for digital video and works fine, I still get OSD.
Awesome, thank you very much. I just bought a Caddx air unit micro. That’s what is going to go into my new big boy 7” quad. Just as soon as it arrives. I can’t wait. Hopefully it shows up befor the weekend.
Oh and I ended up just buying two more frame kits for my QAV-S mini 4” and 4 more completely different motors. BetaFPV 1506 3000kv motors instead of the Tmotor 1404 2800kv ones that originally shipped on the quad. Now I get to learn how to PID tune. Joshua Bardwell here I come...
