d) Installing the Flight Battery
The flight battery is not included. Take the following steps to install the flight battery:
Solder the supplied high power loading system to the connecting cable of the rechargeable battery. Always ensure
correct polarity.
The red electronics system cable of the QuadroCopter must be connected to the positive cable of the rechargeable
battery and the black cable to the negative cable of the rechargeable battery.
Install the rechargeable battery (1) in the frame (2)
and attach it with hook and loop tapes (3).
In addition to the indicated hook and loop tape, also
attach a strip of hook and loop tape to the surface
of the battery (4 - as supplied) to prevent it from
slipping forwards or backwards. The connecting
cables can also be fixed under the hook and loop
tape (3) as shown in the figure.
The rechargeable battery must be placed in the
centre so that the QuadroCopter is not tail-
heavy, top-heavy or side-heavy.
Since the QuadroCopter is also able to perform
freestyle manoeuvres in "agility mode", you must
ensure particularly good connection of the re-
chargeable battery to effectively prevent slipping
or loss of the batteries.
The reinforcement plate of the chassis (2) has a bore intended for an aerial tube (5). You can use the aerial tube to
guide a receiver aerial outside. The upper covering hood also has a hole in this position.
The QuadroCopter’s electronics system has a safety device to prevent inadvertent engine start-up. When contact is
made with the rechargeable battery although the transmitter is not switched on or the speed/pitch control stick was not
set to zero, the control electronics in the model will not cause the engines to start.
When the transmitter is switched on and the speed/pitch control stick is set to zero once, the control electronics in the
model clears normal operating state.
Caution:
To prevent inadvertent engine start-up if the safety device fails, the transmitter should be switched on. The
speed/pitch control stick must be set to zero so that no acceleration command is sent.
