Well, I just learned that flying with a GoPro seriously affects the battery drain especially on the bottom end of the pack.

I decided to take it home with an extra 45 seconds of flight coming around the back way:


Huge mistake, the battery flattened out as I was touching down which caused it to bounce up then upside down. Even though the crash doesn't look that serious, it will not power up now.

When I plug in the battery, I hear the ESCs beep, but none of the LEDs on the GEPRC GEP-F722-45A AIO flight controller nor the TBS Nano RX light up.

In addition, when I plug it into my laptop to access Betaflight, the USB connection is not recognized.

I assume because the FC is an all-in-one, I now have to order a new FC board...which means I have to learn to solder...oh the joy....not!

Before I go through the expense/time of ordering a new FC from GepRC in China, is there anything else I should look at for power failure before diving into replacing the FC?
