Frame Assembly

Step 1: Attach the guard extender (with the extruding piece sticking up & pointing in line with the frame)

frame01

Step 2: Attach the motor to the frame (with the wires pointing along the arm)

frame02

Step 3: Screw in the guard extender and motor using the M3 x 10 (might be 12, the screws were mixed) hex screws (see photo for depth the screws should go) Do NOT use the screws the motor came with

Step 4: Repeat step 1-3 for each motor

Step 5: Attach the propeller in the correct orientations (See photo) (swap propellers with another person so you have 2 of one color and 2 of another color) Pay close attention to the direction of the leading edge (the direction the propeller is meant to spin) (also make sure you have 4 of the same types of propellers, different colors, but same type)

Step 6: Tighten the nylon hex nut (in the small bag of fixtures the motor came with) onto the propeller until it won't spin anymore (use a 5/16 socket)
