Intended use

The AIO FC should only be used for the purpose specified by the
manufacturer for operation of remote controlled copter models
without passengers. Any other type of use is impermissible and may
cause significant property damage and/or personal injury. No war­ranty or liability is therefore offered for any improper use not cov­ered by these provisions.

In addition, it is explicitly pointed out that you must inform yourself
about the laws and regulations applicable at your respective starting
point before starting the remote control operation. Such conditions
may differ from state to state, but this must be followed in every
case.

Notes

•

• In general, it should not be forbidden to fly over airfields, facto­ries, nature reserves, built-up areas, etc.

• Where designated no-fly zones are located, and which in no way
affect them, it can be determined, for example, using the "Air­Map" app.

Installing the AIO FC:

The AIO FC must be mounted with its lower surface parallel to the
chassis using the rubber buffers and M3 screws.

The AIO FC must be protected against dust, splash water, etc. in the
model. But do not pack your AIO FC too airtight so that it does not
overheat during operation and the height sensor on the S1039 can
work properly.

The cables may not be wound around antenna or run next to it. Make
sure that the cables cannot shift to lie directly adjacent to antenna
during flight.

In the case of carbon fibre chassis, at least the last 35 mm of the
antennas shall be routed outside.

Connecting the RC components of the copter

Insert the connection cable of the ESCs of the copter, which must be
connected to the receiver, with the black or brown cable upwards
into the connector strip of the receiver, as shown in the illustration
on the left. The polarity of the plug-in system cannot be reversed. Do
not apply force. The servo connections of the Graupner-HoTT
receiver are numbered. Only use speed controllers that are multi-
shot capable to connect the motors.
