Vertiq 8108 150Kv

Flash Firmware

ˆ

Disconnect motor from your application and remove props

ˆ

Open the IQ Control Center and connect your module (see section for download instructions)

ˆ

Navigate to the “Firmware” tab

ˆ

Click the “Select Firmware Binary (”.bin”)” button

ˆ

Navigate to and select the ”.bin” file that you downloaded

ˆ

Keep the motor plugged in and select the ”Flash” button

ˆ

WARNING: The flashing process takes a number of seconds. Do not unplug power or communication
while the motor is flashing as this could lead to a bricked or difficult to recover motor.

Safety Instructions

ˆ

IQ motor modules and the machines they actuate can be dangerous and cause bodily harm. Please
use caution when working with motors.

ˆ

Plugging the power wires from the battery into the module incorrectly can cause a spark or a fire. This
will result in damage to the motor, controller, and other vehicle components, and may cause bodily
harm.

ˆ

Please keep hands and fingers clear of the motor and machine during operation.

ˆ

While spinning the module with a propeller, please keep a safe distance and use appropriate eye and
ear protection. Contact with a spinning propeller can cause severe bodily harm. Always disarm all
motors before approaching your vehicle.

ˆ

Please exercise caution when changing motor settings and PID gains.

In particular, disabling or

changing built-in limits (e.g. temperature limit, max current limit, velocity redline, etc.) can be
dangerous and cause irreparable damage to the module.

ˆ

The modules may get hot during operation. Do not touch a module immediately after operation as it
may cause a burn.

ˆ

While piloting a drone, please follow all federal and local regulations regarding the operation of Small
Unmanned Aircraft Systems.
