Hi guys - while setting up my pixhawk 2.4.8 the power module burnt up. I unplugged the battery immediately and inspected the board and did not notice any signs of damage. Unfortunately when the pixhawk was reconnected all the came up was a solid purple light and my computer would not detect it through mission planner. Does anyone know any possible solutions?
Disconnect all peripheral devices and try again.
Did not work any other suggestions?
Perhaps it’s toast. Try flashing the firmware using QGroundControl. Choose Ardupilot>Chibios>Multi-rotor>Pixhawk1
Looks like i’ll be purchasing a new pixhawk. Thank you for your help!
Tried! There are many choices in supported Flight Controllers more advanced, and no more expensive, than those Pixhawks…
Do you have any recommendations?
