Default No power gpro
When I connect power to the gpro via a 2s lipo

There's no status light led, how ever the Bluetooth module flashes green

If I try and connect on my phone it shows the module but doesn't connect.

Also tried connecting the pc via USB no connection.

This unit was working at a friends house who did the basic programming for me.

Is there something I'm doing wrong,?

Do you have receiver or bound sats connected and transmitter on? I assume unless you are starting over with basic settings from scratch, you need transmitter signal received at the Gpro for it to boot up.

You should disconnect the sat wires and get the 2S Lipo connected only.

At this time, install the App on PC and connect the USB link.

At the beginning, reset all parameters and choose Sat Receiver to bind your transmitter with your Gpro.

Try BT connection after binding.

i have a customer that is having the exact same problem running 2s lipo as rx pack as well. No one has any answers at the moment. Its driving me insane at the moment cause it has to be something simple. Customer bound it to DSM2, then unplugged to connect servos. No boot up, no lights, no go at all.

I can confirm that the Align Gpro is not polarity protected therefore you have ran into the same issue as my customer. Only seems to happen once the binding procedure has been completed.

Has anyone gotten any more information about this issue. I'm facing the same exact problem and at this point am ready to send my GPro back!

I did notice that where I did have sats light up there are no lights on the DSMX sats.

Have you connected to the computer and run the setup software yet? I think I've seen this until I do an initial set-up with the computer.
