Hi!
First post here to show some pics on how to connect wires to the pcb of the xiaomi yi to power or trigger it externally. Mine's revision Z23L.
I'm from Germany so excuse my poor English grammar, hope u will understand it anyway
Got this tiny beauty to put it under my copter, using a small gimbal to take photos/videos while flying. Also, I wanted a FPV, so Video-Out should also be wired to my transmitter in the copter.
Below are some pics showing the disassembly and the main connections made on the pcb. Next step is to buld some micro-connector into the case of the cam but the one I ordered isn't delivered yet.
Then a small AVR (Tiny45/85) is necessary to simulate the button presses in time and right order to be able to power-on and start recording or taking a photo with one short impulse.
More pics will follow as progress continues.
Regards,
Jan
