Have you noticed that when you plug your Android device into the Skycontroller 2 that it begins to charge the device from the Skycontroller 2 battery?
This is suboptimal.
Unfortunately there's no way to turn it off in the Android software. But there is a solution!
All you need is a 5 cent diode (1A 50volt, 1N4001), a USB-C cable, some electrical tape (cloth works best), and a soldering iron.
Step #1: Cut the cable lengthwise with a razor blade to expose about 1.5" of wire.
Step #2: Locate the red wire. Cut it, solder in the 1N4001 diode with the silver line towards the USB-C end of the cable.
Step #3: Wrap with electrical tape & enjoy longer overall flight time with your Skycontroller 2.
