I haven't had any issues with it. It does get a little hot due to the linear regulator, but that can be removed if you're using an external regulator. There's a newer V2 board that I'd like to try as well. It has a current sensor so you can monitor your mah usage via OSD.
Okey great! I ordered the same fc! Also ordered a aikon 4in1 esc.. and i see you have all your motor signal wires in 1 jst connector straight to the fc.. is that just plug and play and it works?(maybe with some swapping for which motor goes to which wire) or do you have to configure that in betaflight?
Yes you did that verry nice!! So if im correct, i have to go to the recource command in CLI. And then set motor 1-2-3-4 to CS-MISO-SCL-MOSI? Those are the "simbols" i see on the omnibus f4 diagram.. am i right?I also see that you connected the +5v and ground next to the motor signal wires.. (from the esc to the fc) why is this? To power the fc? Or does the fc get power from the small +and- cables you have on the + and - from the lipo lead which go to VBAT and - on the fc?
Once you've wired everything up go to your motors tab and power up each motor one at a time. Take note of which is which and then type resource list from the CLI to see the current configuration. Then use the resource motor 1 xxx and so-on to re-map each motor. Save and go back to the motors tab to test.
I connected the 5v from the ESC to power the FC, RX, VTX and camera. The reason I'm not using the FC regulator is because it can't put out enough amps to power all 4 of those components. I wired up the vbat pins for the voltage reading via OSD. The way the Omnibus works is it chooses the higher of the two: internal reg or 5v via the ESCs. The internal reg only supplies about 4.8v so the ESC will always be chosen instead.
Aaah oke I see!! Well thanks alot for the info! I will keep you posted on how it is going:D and if i cant figure it out you will know also;p thanks for this great buildlog and your fast responses:D keep up the good work!!
Wow i really love this build! How do you like the fight controller? I have the same frame on the way and would like to go for a simulour setup..

Never mind.. i should have looked better in the description (a)
Yep, that connector is great. I saves a lot of soldering and now that you can swap everything via software there's no swapping pins.
