Does anyone know how to bypass the E-board, to provide power to the receiver, so I can make sure it still works. I've got a schematic of the wiring, but it doesn't show a battery terminal on the RX, unless it's that orange wire (although that doesn't really make sense, it needs a ground to work). I know the E-board is fried! Removed it from the bird, and found some lands burnt up, (near a rectangular tan part, top right, just to the left of where the battery input wires are).
I'd like to just replace the main motor ESC, maybe 25 or 35 amp unit, I don't think I'm ready for BL yet. Would that work without the E-board, if the RX still works? Can get one at the LHS 15min away. What do you think, feasable?
