3. Kurulum ve Montaj

Follow these steps to assemble your S500 Quadcopter Frame. Refer to the provided video for visual guidance.

3.1 Motor Kurulumu

Identify the two types of motors: clockwise (CW) with a hole at the top of the shaft and a white mark on the box, and counter-clockwise (CCW) with a flat top of the shaft and no mark on the box. The two red arms (front) use one CW and one CCW motor. The two white arms (rear) also use one CW and one CCW motor. Use M3*8 screws for installation; do not use the screws provided in the motor box if they are shorter.

  1. Align the motor with the arm, ensuring power cords face the inside of the arm.
  2. Gently screw in four M3*8 screws to secure the motor to the arm. Tighten them all one by one after all are in place.

3.2 Plate Assembly

Position the arms correctly: the two red arms are at the front, and the two white arms are at the rear. Ensure motors are placed according to the CW/CCW designation for proper flight.

  1. Install the top plate using four screws per arm (16 screws total). Gently screw them in first, then tighten all screws.
  2. Install the bottom plate using two screws per arm (8 screws total). Gently screw them in first, then tighten all screws.

3.3 Titreşim Dampening Plate and Flight Controller Installation

This section details the installation of the vibration dampening plate and the flight controller (Pixhawk).

  1. Insert four rubber balls into the holes of the dampening plate to create a shock-absorbing support. Use tweezers to push the rubber balls into the holes, a little bit at a time (usually 3-4 times).
  2. Use two double-sided adhesives to attach the vibration dampening plate to the middle of the top plate.
  3. Fix the Pixhawk flight controller in the middle of the vibration dampening plate using two double-sided adhesives. Ensure the arrow on the Pixhawk points to the front of the drone.

3.4 ESC Installation

Connect the Electronic Speed Controllers (ESCs) to the motors and the flight controller.

  1. Start with motor No. 1. Insert the XT60 plug for power supply.
  2. Connect the ESC and the motor using three wires. You can connect them randomly at this stage; adjustments to the wiring sequence can be made during commissioning.
  3. Secure the ESC and XT60 to the arm using zip ties. Ensure they are firmly secured.
  4. Repeat the process for motors 2, 3, and 4.
  5. Note: The motor rotation direction is determined by the order of the three wires connected to the ESC. Ensure correct rotation during initial setup.

3.5 GPS Bracket and Module Installation

Install the GPS module for navigation and positioning.

  1. Unscrew two screws from the top plate and fix the GPS base.
  2. Fix the GPS module to the plate with double-sided tape, ensuring the arrow direction faces forward.
  3. The GPS has two wires; plug them into the GPS and I2C sockets on the flight controller.
  4. Insert the safety switch wire into the corresponding port and place the switch in a convenient position.
  5. Use three zip ties to firmly fix the safety switch.

4. Kullanım Talimatları

This section provides basic instructions for operating your FPV drone. Always perform pre-flight checks before each flight.

4.1 Uçuş Öncesi Kontrol Listesi

  • Tüm pervanelerin güvenli bir şekilde takıldığından ve hasarsız olduğundan emin olun.
  • Verify battery is fully charged and securely fastened.
  • Tüm kablo bağlantılarını gevşeklik veya hasar açısından kontrol edin.
  • Confirm GPS signal acquisition (green flashing LED) before arming.
  • Ensure the safety switch is in the OFF position before powering on.

4.2 Temel Uçuş Operasyonları

Follow these steps for basic flight control. The drone supports various flight modes, including loiter for stable hovering.

  1. Vericinizi açın.
  2. Pull the throttle stick to its lowest position and ensure all switches are in their original positions.
  3. Connect the flight battery to the power module.
  4. Sesi takıntage tester into the battery's balance port and set it to 3.6 or 3.7 volts per cell.
  5. Turn on the safety switch by pressing and holding it for about 2 seconds. The LED on the flight controller will indicate status (flashing green for GPS normal, flashing blue for GPS not located).
  6. Arm the aircraft: Take the left stick to the bottom-left position for about 4 seconds. The propellers will start to rotate, and the drone is now in standby mode.
  7. Change the flight mode to 'Loiter' for stable hovering.
  8. Slowly push the throttle to about 50% to take off.
  9. Use the left stick to control altitude (up/down) and yaw (rotate left/right).
  10. Use the right stick to control pitch (forward/backward) and roll (move left/right).
  11. To initiate Return-to-Launch (RTL), flip the RTL switch on your transmitter. The drone will automatically return to its HOME position. Ensure the HOME position is accurately recorded in open areas with no obstacles.
