K-51 hasn't been to the forum since March. I hope he's alright. Maybe he would know how to fix it. Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk Yes, I bought a new cable today to test it. Same problem occurs, so maybe the magnetometer sensing the motion of the collective axis is broken.. (?)
MAXsenna Posted August 7 Posted August 7 Yes, I bought a new cable today to test it. Same problem occurs, so maybe the magnetometer sensing the motion of the collective axis is broken.. (?)I haven't opened mine, so I don't know how the design is. Yeah, maybe the magnet became loose. Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk

But i have one of the first versions of his collective. I dont under stand when he says in the second post you linked to: "On the controller board we find two contacts labeled "BOOT"..." What controller board is he talking about? I can't recognize anything like that inside my collective. I think indeed a firmware reboot of my device would help, but I can't figure out how to do it. Because the VPC Programs and Windows joy.cpl won't respond to the device properly.
erniedaoage Posted August 11 Posted August 11 Maybe you have the new version with the arduino controller board. Mikhail switched to a new board for his latest collectives as far as i know. So probably the solutions i posted are for the older versions.

mntimbuktu Posted 10 hours ago Posted 10 hours ago Hey guys, I've had a K51 for years now, and I accidentally pinched the 5 pin cable that goes from the board to the USB-B port. I had been wiring it back together, but it's janky. I am having no luck finding a replacement cable that fits the board. Anyone know where I could get this cable?
