STEP 4

Parts Required: 
1 X Catalyst Machineworks FPV PRO Power Distribution Board 
1 X 90° Pin Header Set (included with your PDB)

Assembly Process:
We sell the 210-R and 180-R with or without PDB. This assembly step only applies to the included PDB. If you use another 
PDB other than our brand you are on your own. If you are using the included Catalyst Machineworks PDB, reference 
the manual on our website at: 

http://www.catalystmachineworks.com/collections/fpv-racing-equipment/products/catalyst-machineworks-fpv-
racing-pdb

After you have soldiered the pin headers per the PDB manual it will be necessary to bend them slightly upwards as 
shown in the graphic below. You can use some needle nose pliers to bend each header up by 20 degrees or so. This 
will aid in wire management later in the build.
