at first i assumed it was overheating since i had it kind of tucked under the top plate with not a lot of airflow but i repositioned it and still same problem. also checked and the video does the same thing when im just hovering which rules out vibration i think. power wiring all looks good, no loose connectors that i can see.
the weird thing is the fc and motors are totally fine its just the video feed. running a tbs triumph stubby on the vtx side and a pagoda on my goggles. i wonder if the antenna is somehow the issue but that doesnt really explain the timing of it.
