Potensic ATOM: reconstructing the DSRC02A controller cable

The Potensic ATOM cable investigation reconstructs the directional USB-C connection between a DSRC02A drone controller and an Android phone. Multimeter measurements inform an editable KiCad schematic, wiring notes and a replacement adapter design using SBU/CC connections and two 56 kΩ resistors. The author reports one prototype carrying video and controller input during a short flight.
