These settings were
tested with 3S and
4S batteries.
TIP:
While removing the USB cable from the flight controller, push down on
the controller to keep it from moving. If any of the o-rings on the mounting
posts are lost, the controller may come loose in flight.
FAILSAFE
If your transmitter can set values for all the channels for failsafe, set channels
1-4 to a midstick value and set channel 5 to -100% which will stop the motors.
For transmitters that only set the failsafe on the throttle channel, set the throttle
to 50%. (midstick)
Be sure to remove the props before testing the failsafe operation.
BATTERIES
The Voltage 3D can use a 3 cell or 4 cell LiPo between 2200 mAh and 4000 mAh.
The flight time can be as long as 12 minutes with a large battery and a very
mild flying style. The flight controller does not have a low voltage cutoff to
protect the LiPo from damage. The LEDs on the bottom of the speed controls
will start flashing when the battery is at 10.2 V for a 3S battery and 13.6V for
a 4S LiPo. For your first flight, set a timer for 3 minutes. If the LEDs are not
flashing at the end of the flight, increase your flight time a few seconds. If the
LEDs on the speed controls are flashing at the end of the flight, the timer
setting should be reduced by at least 10 seconds to protect the battery.
WARNING:
Your battery life will be shortened and the
battery can be damaged any time the voltage drops below
3.25 V/cell. Charging a LiPo battery that is damaged in
any way can pose a fire hazard.
We recommend using a voltage monitor/alarm that plugs into the battery’s
balance connector and will sound an alarm when the battery voltage gets low.
PROP INSTALLATION
There are 2 “A” props, one of each
color. These props spin CCW.
There are 2 “B” props, one of each
color. These props spin CW.
A little thread locking compound
should be used on the screws
that hold the props on the motor.
