Section 3: Assembling the Booms
In this section, you’ll be mounting the motors into aptly named motor mounts, which will serve to
protect the motors in the event of a crash. After that’s all set, you will attach chrome stickers to
two of the booms, which will serve to indicate the front of the Quadcopter; otherwise there’s no
way to know what direction the ELEV-8 is facing during flight, which would not be ideal. Finally,
the motor mounts and landing gear will be fastened to the booms.
Warning!
As tempting as it may be, DO NOT attach the propellers to the motor yet. In fact, you
won’t need them until the very last step, so go ahead and stash them away for the moment.
This section will take approximately 1 to 2 hours, depending on your skill level and equipment.
