Step 1 - Kopter-Check

Kopter-Check

Before the Kopter will be powered up the first time after a successful assembly you should review your work again.

For that reason that it is an electronic model a solder bridge or an improperly connected cable can destroy hours of work within seconds.

What should you check?
Here are some hints:

• The red outrigger is pointing forward/to the front?

• The FlightCtrl is mounted correctly (with the SMD parts upwards)?

• The FlightCtrl is pointing with the arrow forwards to the red outrigger?

• The propellers were properly aligned and mounted with the correct direction?

• All bolted connections were made correctly?

• Visual check of all solder joints.

• Visual check of all connected cables.

• The power distribution board has been checked for shorts? (Check help)

• If you have allready mount the GPS-System, is it correct connected? (Check help)

Also this should be checked:

• At the transmitter a model memory with a fixed-wing model (ACRO) has been set up.

• The transmitter has been set to your desired MODE (MODE 2 is the regular mode).

• The channels on the transmitter are assiged to switches, buttons and potis.

• The receiver was bound with the transmitter?

• The receiver gives a PPM sum-signal?

• (or has it been changed to - i.e. necessary at the receiver of the HoTT transmitter => Link)?

• The receiver is connected to the FlightCtrl ? (Check help)

Everything OK? Then it continues here:
