I think you use a little too much solder for my tastes but, basically it looks like good technique.
I also think it would have been good to demonstrate the use of braided solder wick.
I was expecting a How to Basic video but got this...
Mabye show some removal of solder ie. Desoldering with vacuum tool or braided flat wire ..
More famously known as a solder sucker. I was just about to make the same comment when I saw yours.
the craft king #1 using a solder sucker is very easy to do and very handy.
the craft king #1 just hold your soldering iron until the solder becomes fluid and have the solder sucker next to it to suck it in before it solidifies once again.
I dont know have to solder before and after I watched you video, I tried it, and it worked. Now ( two month later) I have built my own racing drone. Thank you sooooo much...😃
Second tip you should not keep iron on any electrical board more than 5 seconds or the heat will travel to components and cause thermal damage. That's why you raise temp on larger connections to heat that area rapidly before thermal transfer gets to your components. Allow components to cool between tinning and actual soldering of connection.
Excellent video Matt!! Keeping this one for reference
Just the tip. :)
You may want to announce this channel on your main channels videos. I had no idea this channel was even a thing, just haopened to run into a recommendation.
What’s up with people not using flux???. It makes things 100% faster PLUS less heat transfer to your components.
Always apply flux to your pads and wires, tin everything with the same solder, join with a very small amount of solder on your iron tip, and boom instant perfect solder joint. Finally wipe the excess flux and heat shrink. Soldering will always be easier and faster with flux!
Most wires already have a flux resin core. But yeah I get what you mean. Flux just makes things easy
He did use flux u can see it bubbling in the wire
Pretty good, but a park of actual wire strippers is a very worthwhile investment. The side cutters work, but are very fiddly to use in smaller wires
I wonder which part of the Atlantic Ocean, now contains the loose 'L' that fell off the word 'solder' on the way over there?
Maybe they were all Puritans & considered the letter unspeakable, hence . . . (FX: Barely noticeable splash, gulls etc. : )
IF YOU ARE SOLDERING XT60 CONNECTORS PUT THE OTHER END IN!!! THE TERMINALS WILL COME OUT WITH TOO MUCH HEAT. ask me how i know lol
0:58 HAHAHAHAAAAA i love that picture so much!!!!
Love that classic picture of the woman soldering while holding the end. Epic
Good tip for flight controls and esc's is to put a larger than object piece of double side tape on work surface and place item to be soldered on to tape to hold in position.....also can be helpful tinning small wire bundles without damaging them....👍
Guys (Americans), it's soLder, not "sodder". It's not a silent "L".
Nice video though.
You're using too much solder bud, good tips other wise
Thanks for the tips!
Thank You your video helped me
I have a tip anchor down any components being soldered to good video keep them coming 👍
And for our American friends: The basics of soddering.
you taking shots at our language m8?
How to basic?
I like to use a thinner tip to solder electronics. This tip is big to solder a Flight Controller.
Never, ever reheat solder. Remove the excess solder and apply fresh solder while heating the connection. When you stop feeding solder, pull the iron away within a second or two..
Just to make it a little easier for us non-americans - could you give your measurements (temperature, in this case) in metric/SI-units?
This actually would of been useful to see about a week ago as I was learning to solder for SAE Aero. Before I knew little but afterward I became a GOAT at soldering. Maybe perhaps a video on moderate to advanced soldering skills 😀
What diameter solder wire is best for projects like in the video?
Make a sky-cart build video!
Really good tips, dude. That's exactly how I do it too. 😊
That is how I wish I did it.
Aerodynamic Cow Don't worry, man. We are always learning, making new mistakes, learning again and so on. It's life. 😊
Very helpful. Thank you.
I saw how to basic and kinda thought it was something else lol but I am grateful for the tips
LOL 0:58 is the how to basic version of soldering
Flite test is how to basic
No use of Flux ...???
250th like!!!!
Ooh new guy
Is it the same when you are soldering two wires?
Solder doesn't make a very good mechanical connection, so it is a good idea to twist the wires together first. Then just apply solder. If you use heatshrink, remember to add that first
Nice video on soLdering :-)
Solder (Middle English "souder", from Old French "soudeur", from Latin "solidare", meaning "to make solid") has divergent pronunciation. Lots of French words derived from Latin drop "L"s here and there. The word was pronounced "sodder" for centuries, basically until a fundamentalist movement in the 15th century sought to return Latin-derived words to their roots. The word was inconsistently pronounced "sodder" or "solder" for a few generations more, and, as with many words, the American version stayed unchanged from its 17th-century version while the British version shifted.
I was expecting josh b in this video he could have explained better! ; )
i bet you would not say that to matt's face ;) i thought he did a great job!
Didn't see him use any soldering acid, that might be a good idea to aply before tinning a surface. Help the solder to apply more easily
Liutauras Grybauskas The solder used for electronics is different than for plumbing applications. The solder for electronics is a rosin core solder which basically is solder and flux in one.
I’ve tried a soldering “pen” like this for a clean surface 🤓
In electronics you don't use acid to clean the surfaces first, acid would lead to corrosion and eventually a failed joint. Instead you use flux, but you basically use it the same as you would use acid. Electronics solder is flux cored and I've had good luck using it without additional flux, but I know a few electronics techs that swear you should always use additional flux.
Mark Pikas Well yeah I guess you don't need acid for electronics, it just comes in handy when you're making some structural parts.
As for flux, yes, some electronic solders contain it, but not all. That's why I always use it when I'm soldering
For electronics, use rosin core solder, not acid core. Extra flux is usually not necessary..
Vague instructions that miss all the important steps.
