Crazyflie2 Power button broken

Post by Seraf_NSS »

Hello,

i recetly get my crazyflie2, https://twitter.com/Seraf_NSS/status/54 ... 76/photo/1

it's an awesome quad, with a PS4 controller and shoulder button it's so easy to control !

after 7 days i got a problem with the power button, the pushing black part is broken, it splitted in some part and some part was lost...

so now, to start the quad it's very difficult,

how can i fix this?

If you have access to a soldering iron and a little bit of skill, you can get a new one and solder it on. If you don't want to try to put a new one on, you can pull off all the old pieces (it's easier if you have a soldering iron) and then you can just bridge the connection for a moment with a metal object (piece of wire) and it will turn on (or off). Getting it into Bootloader mode will be a little harder though. Replacing the switch is the best fix.

Here's the part number. Here's a post on how I put a new one on my Crazyflie 1.0.
