    These small servo pads are a pain in the rear if there are many of them in a tight place😅 Is it just me?

  • @vedmarth
    @vedmarth Рік тому +9

    This looks like magic, I was trying to solder for 3 hours, spoiled 5 tips, temperature around 350-400 every tip turns black after few minutes, then solder doesn't stick to the tip. Also for some reason I cant get solder stick to some pads (ground pads), sometimes solder sticks but then I can't melt it again. I think I spoiled several pads on flight controller, they look dark and solder doesn't stick at all. Going to buy tip cleaner, more tips, practice board and try again...

    @rossb9053 2 роки тому +2

    I feel like my pads look good when i tin them, but when i go to put a wire on it sits on the top of it, rather than being covered in the solder, what causes this? Not lifitng up correctly once it melts?

      @@nathanlane6490 I'm not entirely sure, I know I got a little better but I'm not sure what I was doing at the time. I think some changes ive made along the way are changing from 350 to 400, putting a small amount on the tip before hitting the wire, and maybe try coming in at more of an angle idk if that helps or not

  • @AGZFPV
    @AGZFPV 3 роки тому +2

    As someone who has done this a lot. In your intro. Your tip was pretty dirty and corroded. Clean and tin it well and keep it clean with tip cleaner! Otherwise looks great! If you notice your solder joint isn’t shiny and is dull the tip condition is why! Also make sure to use high quality 60/40 leaded rosin core! Kester is the way to go!

    Thanks so much. I want to do a little bit of soldering on a broken minidrone but don’t want to break the bank. Any suggestions on what would be an acceptable soldering station? Do I really need a display that indicates temperature?

    • @TRONCATFPV
      @TRONCATFPV  2 роки тому +1

      I would definitely recommend one with an adjustable temperature. Once you get better at soldering, you'll like having the ability to adjust the temperature higher so you can solder a little faster 👍
