Hi Guys,


I was taking some video today and all went well. I was flying with the original big sky controller 1


After plugging in the bebop's micro USB to my PC I could not get it to connect to import the video which it has done ok many times before.


After jiggling the usb connection I got it to connect to the pc and download the videos, but on unplugging the micro usb the whole socket came away from the motheboard.


OK I thought .....so now I will have to download any videos/pic via wifi and the FFP app........ no big deal.


So after recharging the batteries off I go to the field but now the Skycontroller wont connect to the drone and all I get is a single red light indicator led  on the sky controller showing the bebop connection  Normally it goes red and then measured the power of the bebop battery.  I also dont have any wi fi  indicator led on the left of the skycontroller just a single red led? The sky controller goes through the sequence of tests white LED before it gets to the red LED indicator.


The strange thing is that I can connect and control the bebop with my Tabletphone   no problem,       just not with the skycontroller


Would a broken micro USB prevent the bebop from communicating with the skycontroller ?


Any help or suggestions wold be appreciated as re-soldering the SMD micro usb is beyond me,
