A Little About Receivers
There’s a lot of technical talk, here, but we’ll try to make it as understandable as possible.
This is just a bit of background and shouldn’t be used as your instructions. You definitely
want to use the instructions that came with your transmitter/receiver set to do the actual
installation properly.
There are, for the most part, two kinds of receivers: “PWM-based” and “PPM-based,” which
is sometimes called “CPPM.” These are the two languages your transmitter and receiver use.
You need to know which type your transmitter/receiver set uses before you plug in.
Attaching Your Receiver
Estimated time to complete: 15 minutes
Now is the time you’ll plug in your receiver. This is part of a matched set with your transmit-
ter (the thing in your hands you use to steer your drone). Because there’s a lot of transmitters
out there with varying degrees of complexity and prices, we’ve left this decision up to you.
You’ll connect your receiver to your KK 2.1 Control Board using servo cables we’ve included
with your kit. We’ve given you three cables, but you may only need one.
Refer to the manual for your transmitter/receiver package on how to hook it up to your
Control Board.
