Page 1 R630 FPV Spider Quadcopter...
Page 2 REMEMBER RC Aircraft are not toys! This is a complicated flying machine that requires skill to build and fly. Whilst the R630 FPV Spider Quad is a stable and capable flyer, it is not really intended for new pilots. Make sure you know the rules for the country you are flying in. If in doubt, seek help from an experienced pilot.
Page 4 The R630 FPV Spider Quad is supplied in kit form and contains everything you need to complete the frame:  Top and bottom plates  Acrylic protective hood  Flight controller anti-vibration mount  FPV camera mounting brackets  HD camera vibration isolation plate ...
Page 5 5200mah 3S LiPo (max thickness 25mm) Reciever: FRSky V8 HV Flight Camera: Turnigy IC-120NH Mini CCD Video Camera Video Transmitter: ImmersionRC 5.8Ghz Audio/Video Transmitter with ImmersionRC 5.8GHz Circular Polarized SpiroNet Antenna V2 HD Camera: GoPro™ Hero 3 Black edition © Red20RC 2014...
Page 6 Now add the 6 ESC vertical mounting brackets. These will be a tight fit and may require a little sanding on the edges to get them in. This is intentional as once in place they require no glue and will be a strong fit. © Red20RC 2014...
Page 7 Finish the internal structure by adding the three plates that make up the FPV camera bracket. Again, these will more than likely be a tight fit so take you time and sand a slight bevel on the edges of the tabs to help with locating them in place if necessary. © Red20RC 2014...
Page 8 The camera mounting bracket is pre-drilled to suit the Turnigy range of micro FPV cameras. Access to this area will be difficult later on in the build so now is a good time to mount the camera using the M2 screws provided with the camera bracket. © Red20RC 2014...
Page 9 30A or smaller ESCs should fit within this limit. In the photo you can see we have placed each set of ESCs “head to toe” and run one set of cables through the centre channel. © Red20RC 2014...
Page 10 M3 x 10mm nylon screws. In total there will be 3 black spacers at the front, 4 at the rear and 2 in the centre. The two in the centre are special and should have the male ends facing upwards. © Red20RC 2014...
Page 11 An anti-vibration mounting plate is included that will suit most APM style flight controllers. The top plate is also drilled to suit 33 – 45mm pattern square control boards such as the KK2.1, Naze32 and CC3D with a direct mounting. © Red20RC 2014...
Page 13 Connect up your booms to the ESCs, paying particular attention to which ESC is connected to which motor. © Red20RC 2014...
Page 14 It is up to you if you want to source and fit these. With the booms in place, add the seven M3 x 10mm nylon screws to the spacers. Do not over tighten. © Red20RC 2014...
Page 15 TIP: The hood is supplied in clear acrylic. To achieve the “frosted” look shown in the photo, rub over the entire surface gently with fine sandpaper. Use a circular rubbing motion to achieve the best effect. Additional colours/finishes may be available in the future. © Red20RC 2014...
Page 16 Although the battery should be a tight fit, it is a good idea to fit some kind of battery retention system. In the prototype this was simply an elastic band looped over the nylon spacers and around the tail to hold the pack inside and prevent it slipping backwards. © Red20RC 2014...
Page 17 With the PIDs shown on the product page and the KK2.1.5 in Stabilise mode we have found the R630 to be a very stable and smooth frame. Perfect for those medium to long-range FPV flights! © Red20RC 2014...
