I'm talking about a DasMikro 2s6a - one of these:

And it's the bottom left pad in the image

Re: A Hotel, constructed of Limas, for Ants: A Build Diary
appoligies... which pad has the problem in the picture as seen?

Re: A Hotel, constructed of Limas, for Ants: A Build Diary
ok bottom left connects to the 2k resistor next to it... if you can connect there it should work
as i understand it, from a damaged pad you follow the line back and run from the first component you meet closest to the pad
if there is a break between two components, a wire connected between them works...
you can get conductive pens to colour in the missing trace but i have no experience in using these and therefore cannot say whether they are any good...

Re: A Hotel, constructed of Limas, for Ants: A Build Diary
I got nuthin. The receiver bound properly, but I got no motor spin. I reckon this DasMikro might be fried.
Query: 2x Vex29esc and mix in transmitter. That should work fine, right?
If I roll with that, how do I get power to the receiver? Lemons run at 5v, correct? Does the Vex29esc contain a step-down thingy like the DasMikro? I guess it has to if it supports the 3-pin receiver connector.

Re: A Hotel, constructed of Limas, for Ants: A Build Diary
it sounds like it... do you have a multimeter? could see where the problem lies... test for power entering into the board, then test continuity between each component... no beep means that component is probably the faulty one...

Re: A Hotel, constructed of Limas, for Ants: A Build Diary
yes 2 esc's with mixing will do the same job... just disconnect the red wire (to the rx) from one of them
i can't see anywhere whether it has an internal bec... though i saw just 1 post claiming it has a linear voltage regulator at 4.5v... i did see multiple times that it will happily run off 11.1v and someone had it running off 14.4v but with no follow up regarding life span

Re: A Hotel, constructed of Limas, for Ants: A Build Diary
Okay, I'm looking at the Vex29s and... They take full lipo power in, signal in (from receiver), and output motor wires. I can't see how I'd power the lemon if I'm using Vex29s...?
... I can just grab a 5v regulator and wire the lemon, through that, from the battery I guess.
Something like this https://www.sparkfun.com/products/107
... nooo... a touch more googling and I doubt it. That said 5v bec's seem to exist, though I'm now rapidly approaching having a LOT of electronics going on in here
