5 Assemble electronics onto base
plate
The base plate holds the power
system: power distribution board
(PDB), power module, and six ESCs.
Place the assembled power system
onto the base plate. ESCs 1, 3, 4,
and 6 will attach to the sides of the
copter, perpendicular to the plates,
and cannot be secured until after
the top plate is assembled. For now,
place these ESCs around the edges
of the plate. Situate ESCs 2 and 5 on
the base plate with the labels facing
down. To better accommodate the
power system on the plate, you
can switch the order of the Deans
connections between the ESCs and
the PDB. (Do not switch the orders
of any other cables.) Ensure that
the power module XT60 connector
protrudes from the back end of the
copter where it can easily connect to
the battery.
6 Assemble top plate
Remove any nuts that you may
have used to secure the arms
temporarily to the base plate, and
add the top plate directly on top of
the arms. Secure the three existing
screws with metal nuts, and add a
nylon nut on top of each metal nut.
