An impromptu repair on the USB plug of my Hubsan X4 quadcopter charge cable. Turned out to be a simpler problem than I first imagined.

Love bro
The red LED on my Hubsan X4 charger flashes very fast, possibly 8-10 flashes every second instead of the usual once every second. Not sure if it's the charger or the 7.4v 610mAh 15C battery
So, I have the same quadcopter. I have the red one of this. I managed to get the red light on, but I don't think its charging because when I try to fly the drone with the charged battery, it does noy work.
Can you please give me a solution for this?
I have the end of the cable, but not the USB part. Is there a way I can use another USB attachment to charge it with a resistor because mine is of 200 mAh??
How to buy charger lead
above all else, thank you for taking the time to post a video. Just my opinion,The way you over enunciate makes you sound like a teen girl who wants her iPhone now. I would have left it with it only working half way in, cuz that's our favorite game over here in the states, its called" just the tip"
Is there a alternative charging method or cable for this type of issue?
The same thing happens to mine
Plug acted differently in each hole, meaning it’s the parts that interface with the charger
No having a good mate with the male and female sounds like a personal problem….lol I'm only teasing….Good video thumbs up ☝ ☝ ☝ ☝ up
I also have this problem but also the LED light in mine doesn’t turn off when the charging is complete. Its really annoying
sub back
I have a similar drone with the same USB charger, im wondering if the PCB is nessecery. On mine, the USB end completely disconnected from the PCB and ripped some of the green paint off. im thinking to just cut the wire and put on a new usb but i know lipo batteries or the special batteries in drones have to have a resistor and a specific voltage and amperage so they have the PCB's to fix that… im just worried ill make a fireball instead of a flying ball.
I have two of these USB charger cables and they all do the same very annoying when the slightest of changes everything it leaves you with zero confidence is there a product I could buy to replace them ?
I pulled the white and red cable out anyway to fix it?
