Hello,

As many people do, I'm moving from dji mavics to an fvp drone. Absolutely loving the different flying style but also crashing a lot. My most recent crash has caused some problems.

I have the Emax tinyhawk 2 freestyle RTF kit and when I first connect the batteries, the quad starts beeping, as if it is low on batteries, even when they are fully charged. I've tried different batteries with the same result. And then, as soon as I arm the quad, it flies straight up with full thrust and will only stop if I disarm.

I flew it knowing I would crash and break it so I am ready to repair it, but I'm not too sure where to start or how to diagnose it. Any information on potential problems or new required parts would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

Dan
 
Hmm so some good news and some bad news... The tiny hawk has a truly all in one board I believe so the receiver the FC and the escs are all baked into one board which means it's kind of a replace the whole thing situation if a gyro on it or some other component got knocked loose. Would see if can turn on blackbox logs and see if that gives you any more info about what it's reading in terms of sensors and what control signals it's sending out but since all on that one pcb and all surface mounted components without hot air rework station (and even then) not much you can do in terms of diagnosing individual parts. The plus side of this is you just replace the entire aio board and the thing is basically new except reusing the frame and motors... One more unfortunate bit of news looks like the mfg is out of stock on the part so going to need to hunt for distributors with stock.

Sorry to hear yours may have given up the ghost.
 
Also worth noting if you bought from race day quads contact their support they are super helpful and will (likely) give you a replacement if the quad just died from mostly normal use (you didn't try to make it swim) and are very good at offering steps to troubleshoot.
