Figure 38: Filling the Hopper with ignition spheres.
Fill the Hopper with the desired number of ignition spheres as shown in Figure 38. Filling
the Hopper to the bottom of the aluminum brackets is approximately 400 ignition spheres. It
is recommended to only fly with 400 spheres but it is possible to fit 450 spheres by filling the
Hopper to the top of the carbon fiber sides. With this many spheres, the injection amount
cannot be set above 0.4 mL or the reservoir will run dry before dropping all 450 spheres.
It is important to make sure that the chutes at the bottom of the Hopper are filled with
ignition spheres so that the first injections are not missed due to the lack of spheres. During
the filling process, use the “AGITATE” button on the app to briefly move the agitator in the
hopper with just a few initial spheres, as shown in Figure 36. Once the chutes are full, the
remaining ignition spheres can be quickly added.
