This section details the final assembly of your Batfly 250 FPV Quad Racer. Because not all sections are pertinent to

InSTALLInG ThE FPV CAmERA AnD VIDEo TRAnSmITTER (kIT VERSIon)
This section describes installing the FPV camera and 5.8GHz video transmitter. To ensure compatibility, we recommend
using the Hobby People 1000TVL Color HD FPV Camera (P/N 116259) and the Hobby People 5.8GHz FPV Video
Transmitter (P/N 116258). These parts are designed for plug-and-play installation without need for modification.
If you’re using different FPV equipment, the details in this section may differ and/or you may need to modify the
Quad Racer’s frame to accommodate your equipment.
1) Carefully remove the external camera mount and the four vibration isolators
from the top plate.
2) Using a 2.0mm hex wrench, unscrew the ten M2.5 x 5mm socket-cap screws
that hold the top plate in place, then remove the top plate.
3) Plug one end of the power cable (red/black) into the FPV Video Transmitter,
then mount the FPV Video Transmitter to the underside of the top plate.
