sorry for the crap osd

@steep sphinx looks like a major power issue to me. What voltage is the battery at, according to a multimeter or charger? (Prefer meter)

steep sphinx
#

Would the low battery voltage be an issue

vital owl
#

Yes

#

The FC has a minimum voltage requirement. Normally, a 3S+ battery even when empty is far above that, however, I don't know if your battery is charged even to that amount of voltage.

#

So I need you to check what voltage is coming out of the battery's xt60.@steep sphinx

steep sphinx
#

Ok

#

i think it may have around 10v

vital owl
#

What battery is it?

#

Cell count

#

@steep sphinx

steep sphinx
#

3s

#

cause it was a 4s but one of the cells died

vital owl
#

So you cut out the 4th cell ?

You're going to have fun digging in the ashes that will remain of your house.

#

Look, if you don't understand your colossal fuckup here, you shouldn't be tinkering with the insides of batteries.

That's not what matters

#

You're trying to draw power through a shorted out cell

#

That's like #4 way to set a battery on fire

steep sphinx
#

lol, ok

vital owl
#

You're only lucky that it has high enough of a resistance

#

To drop below usable voltage

steep sphinx
#

alright

I don't think you realise how this can end. I've seen it plenty of times over the years. Burned out rooms, apartments, permanent injuries.. this isn't funny.
