Hi,
i have an issue with my wifi modules on all spirit's.

If i connect the battery and the system starts up i don't have a working wifi (solid blue LED)
I have to disconnect and connect the wifi module (the rest of the system still has power) to get the wifi module to work.

any hints ?
thank u

Can you try to connect it directly from the unit or receiver? So that it is powered from the same bus as unit.

Hi,

Thank you for the details.

Does it happen from the beginning?

We can send you new Wifi-Link to try.
It should not happen on any helicopter.

Well,
i connect my Wifi modules to the spirit of a friend and they worked as they should.

so we disconnected the wifi module link from sys of the spirit and connected the battery. the module worked as designed.

if we plug in the module link back on sys to the spirit,then power up, the wifi module dosen't come up.
any clues ?

Sorry forgot to mention that:

all spirits 2.4.2
all wifi's 2.4.1

the only difference we can spot is: my friend has SBUS and i have all standard PWM receivers
