Hey y'all
Was starting to mess around again with the prop, after a few years hiatus.
And the USB part of the prop plug fell off in my hand!
Ahh here's the reason it can't find the propeller on com5
I ordered another, but do you think its worthwhile to try to heat it up and solder it back together or should I toss it?
If so, by solder iron or on a hot plate?
Just don't know if the old solder will be any good. Its probably one of the first ones made.
