Hi, I just got the RoboQuad from ebay and I started to follow the video on connecting the EZ-B to it, but when I opened the head it looks different then the video. The board says G7303-3A. Can someone help in wiring it up? steve3624
Post some pics. Let's see what the differences are.
For reference, here is a picture from the video with labels. The board is in the head of the robot.
Thanks DJ for the fast response. Here are photos for the board. I hope you can view them, I haven't added photos to a post before.

Haha wow, i have no idea! The "TX" wire is what i'd expect to be correct - but then there is "Receiver" also. Additionally, I would assume there to be a transistor on the IR LED.
You can try either of those two. I'm surprised to see such a drastic change in the RoboQuad - specifically since there is only one version advertised
Thanks for looking. I don't have the remote because I didn't think I would need it since I was going to use the EZ-B. I guess I will try experimenting. If I get it to work I will post what I found. Steve3624
Okie let me know what you discover! )
Well I tried, but it's beyond my ability. I am not sure what I am going to do now. Any suggestions? steve3624
In your pic it could be the yellow wire that you cut and connect to the EZB signal wire where DJ has used the blue wire in his pic
Or you could buy an infra red LED and connect it to the EZB signal wire and ground like any other ordinary LED and place it right in line with the Robo Quad IR_LED and dont make a physical connection at all. That way the EZB should act like a very clever remote question for DJ if you think this method would work ok?
Hello winstn60, Thanks for the info and looking at my problem. I like the infra red idea, I think I will try that next I hope it works. I will post my results in a week or so my results. I am waiting for the camera to come back for DJ for warranty. steve3624
