the important thing is, that micro-AB type is only for receptacle. and it's called "AB" as it fits plugs with A-type [rectangular] and B-type [trapezoid]. that's why AB is more like a rounded rectangle with the pins on little plate kinda hanging in the middle. speaking about cables - I've got...

if it helps: mine was gray in the end. one component was white-ish, other kinda dark grey. it was recommended as the stuff for cold welding of various materials, even steel, and is doing fine even in 315 degrees celsius - manufacturer's paperwork says it is good for welding engine parts...

mine were without rubbers, but I've noticed I can easily take down original rubbers and put them on new sticks :) it sounds like those are similar to mine - at first they seemed to fit but were too loose to be safely used. that's why I tried the epoxy way, and I think it would be the best for...

the epoxy used was this one I'm not sure if it's available everywhere, but I guess that any other 2-component epoxy with similar properties should work :) as for the drill - I had few of them and started from the smallest [which eventually turned out to be perfect]. after the sticks ordered on...

@Spark 317 @RotorWash thanks for the kind words! I'm glad you liked it! :)

I was thinking about moving to other drones too, but in the end - seeing how do I use my Spark, I guess it totally suits my needs, and updating it would be just an empty run "to have the latest and greatest" even if I just don't need that ;) thanks, moving finally ended, all most important...

heh, my move to the new office and "restarting" the company from COVID-lockdown took longer than I expected, just got the fiber connected few days ago so I'm almost up-and-running completely.. I will share the video soon, even if interest falls down - just to fulfill my promise. I already feel...

spoiler alert: i did it! I have some video recorded, I'm going to prepare short movie with info - but our landlord surprised us and I'm moving my company's office to another address and right now I'm stuck with work :( but fear no more - coming soon! :)

...ok, so let's continue my journey to upgrade the Spark's RC! surprisingly, in these COVID-19 days, stuff ordered on AliExpress came a little bit quicker than usual. also - my ebay-bought RC came in the same day as joysticks [in the meantime I ordered a second model also, for comparison - it...

...aaand another small update. just won an auction for damaged RC [usb data pins broken, RC is charging & working via wifi, but OTG fails] - it was cheaper than the spare joysticks, so win-win for me ;) looks like all parts are on their way to me - a donor RC from ebay and screwable sticks from...

all right, small update. I am after some serious shopping research, and I found almost impossible to buy a broken controller or just replacement parts.. @Spark 317 ifixit that you've linked, had the best price for both sticks but unfortunately they are out of stock [and although they have an...

thanks for the link to tear-down video! I envy those brave guys that just almost chaotically start to unscrew some devices and seem like they don't care if they will know how to re-assemble it :D I guess that recording whole process can help but still.. ? btw the Mavic remote parts - I thought...

hm, that's a GREAT NOTE about the non magnetic metal. didn't thought about that. so probably "regular" screw+net scenario isn't going to be the possible choice as those parts are more likely to be interferring with magnets or magnetic fields. 3D printer - sure that could be the solution, and...

having too much time to think about stuff to do, while being on partial lockdown, I started to figure out if it's possible to have a nice detachable sticks in Spark's RC controller - same as they were introduced in Mavic Air's RC and all the next DJI's UAVs. I didn't do it yet, it's just a...

isn't that the No-Fly-Zone that was affecting the flight? at 12 minutes, 26 secs of flight there is a notice "Approaching a no-fly zone. RTH may be affected. Fly with caution." someone please correct me if I'm wrong. [witam Kolegę ;) o czasie 12:26.7 zbliżyłeś się do strefy w której loty są...
