Today the mini USB port that charged the tiny lipo battery in the TB Nano remote fell off. I think this was due to a crash, an then repeated yanking of the usb cord out.
Does anyone know how to fix this, or how to install a different charger? It just needs 5v right?
Correct me if I’m wrong, I’m not an expert at micro usb ports lol.
I think you only need to solder the port back to the 2 big pads on the remote since all it takes to charge a battery is a positive and a negative pole.
I have no idea what the middle lines between those 2 pads are though. If anyone is more experienced in this field please correct me if I’m wrong
the 2 big ones are just anchor pads. the inbetween are the actual usb connection lanes, 2 of which would be +/- and the others are normally for actual data transfer on usb, which are not used in this remote.
I’m pretty sure the copper on the anchor pads came up completely, so I will have to glue those down. I’m guessing by the pictures, the left two pads are the +and-. Anyone have confirmation on this?
@Meche
I understand the drawing. Could I glue the mini USB in order to anchor it? Or can I “restore” the copper on the pads? How would I solder to the C8 cap? I see what that is, I’m just not entirely sure where on it
