Step 1: Frame Arm Assembly (3 sets)

1. Unpack the Arm pairs. Note the arms have LEDs with color: Blue, Red or Green.

2. Unpack these parts to complete the 3 arm sets:

• M3 x 5mm button head screws & M3 x 30mm pillars

• six motor mount plates

• six motors.

• six landing gears.

1. Note the fuselage plate has a side “A” and “B”. Ensure side “A” is always facing

upwards.

2. In this step, use the fuselage with electronics installed. Solder all 4 arms to this plate

(Figure 4).

1. Proceed with installing the 3 arm sets as shown above.

2. Caution: Do not overheat the arm contact points, as the metal will deform making

it difficult for arm insertion into the fuselage plate.

3. To check LED light function, connect a 3S Lipo balance plug to the socket at the

bottom of the fuselage; the LEDs will light up. You may also check with a DC

meter at the solder point; it should indicate approximately 2.3 Volts.

Step 3: Install ESCs and flight pack Power connector

1. After soldering the 3 arms, install the 6 ESCs by connecting the 3 ESC output wires

to the 6 motors. At this juncture, don’t worry about the motor rotation direction.

2. Run both the ESC servo lead and power supply to the middle fuselage. Connect the

power input leads to the JST connectors and exit the T-Plug as shown below.

3. After completing ESC install, you may proceed with the middle plate installation.

Don’t forget to pull the 6 servo leads from the ESCs through the middle plate for

later connection to the FY91Q.

4. After installing the middle plate, you can proceed to install the flight controller

( FY91Q) via the damper mount / anti-vibration pads.

5. Install your RC Receiver and complete the connection with the FC as per the FC’s

manual.

3 (top) = ESC 3 CW
4 (bottom) = ESC 4 CCW
5 (bottom) = ESC 5 CCW
6 (bottom) = ESC 6 CCW

cw = clock wise
ccw = counter clockwise

1. After installing the FC, activate the quad and carefully check that the propeller

rotation is as shown above.

2. If any of the motors are rotating in the opposite direction to what is noted above,

change any two wires of the ESC 3 wire motor plug. This will correct the propeller

rotation.

3. Lastly install the top fuselage plate to protect the FC and RC Receiver.

Step 5: Voltage Level Indication via Fuselage LED Flashing

1. When flying, the white LED on the bottom plate will begin flashing to indicate the

voltage of your flight battery, as follows:

Battery Voltage

>11.5V 11.1V~11.5V 10.8V~11.1V <10.8V
