Build tools

조립 단계

RTF 키트는 아래와 같이 조립하여야 합니다.

1 단계 : 모터 마운트 부착

  1. 그림과 같이 윙 브래킷 내부에 고릴라 접착제를 펴서 바릅니다.

    Add glue on wing brackets

  2. 브래킷에 카본 튜브를 부착합니다. 브래킷과 튜브는 흰색 표시를 사용하여 정렬합니다 (그림 참조).

    INFO

    This is very important because the white mark indicates the center of gravity.

2 단계 : 날개 부착

  1. 두 탄소 튜브를 동체에 삽입합니다.

  2. 각 튜브에있는 두 개의 흰색 표시 사이에 고릴라 접착제를 바릅니다 (빨간색 화살표로 표시됨). 중앙의 흰색 표시 (파란색 화살표)는 동체 중앙에 배치되고, 다른 표시는 측면에 배치됩니다.

  3. 탄소 튜브가 동체 내부에 있으면, 튜브의 나머지 부분에 고릴라 접착제를 바르고 날개를 부착하십시오.

  4. 동체에는 모터와 서보 케이블을 위한 두 개의 구멍이 있습니다. 구멍으로 케이블을 통과시킨 다음 날개를 동체에 연결합니다.

  5. 동체 내에 제공된 커넥터를 사용하여 방금 날개에서 ESC로 통과한 신호 케이블을 연결합니다. ESC는 이미 모터에 연결되어 있으며, 올바른 순서로 회전하도록 설정되어 있습니다 (나중 단계에서 ESC PDB를 전원 모듈에 연결해야 함).

  6. ESC와 마찬가지로 서보는 이미 설치되어 있습니다. 날개 (동체를 통과)에서 비행 컨트롤러로 신호 케이블을 연결합니다.

  7. 다른 날개에 이 단계를 반복합니다.

3 단계 : 전자 장치 연결

이 키트에는 필요한 전자 장치가 대부분 미리 연결된 Dropix 비행 컨트롤러가 포함되어 있습니다 (다른 Pixhawk 호환 비행 컨트롤러를 사용하는 경우 연결이 유사함).

Connect the ESC power connector and pass the signals cables to the flight controller

  1. Connect the ESC to the power module using the XT60 connector

  2. Pass the signals cables through to the flight controller

Motor Wiring

Motor and servo wiring is nearly entirely up to you, but should match the Generic Standard VTOL configuration, as shown in the airframe reference. The geometry and output assignment can be configured in the Actuators Configuration

For example, you might wire it up like this example (orientation as if "sitting in the plane"):

포트연결
MAIN 1Front right motor, CCW
MAIN 2Back left motor, CCW
MAIN 3Front left motor, CW
MAIN 4Back right motor, CW
AUX 1Left aileron
AUX 2Right aileron
AUX 3Elevator
AUX 4Rudder
AUX 5Throttle

Flight Controller Connections: Motors, Servos, RC receiver, current sensor

The image below shows back of the dropix flight controller, highlighting the outputs pins to connect quad motors cables, aileron signal cables, throttle motor, and the current sensor and receiver (RC IN) input pins.

  1. Connect quad motors signal cables.

  2. Connect the aileron cables and throttle motor in the auxiliary outputs.

  3. Connect the throttle motor signal cable from the ESC to the appropriate flight controller auxiliary port. Connect the ESC to the throttle motor.

  4. Connect the receiver (RC IN).

Flight Controller Connections: Telemetry, Airspeed Sensor, GPS, Buzzer and Safety Switch

The sensor inputs, telemetry, buzzer and safety switch are located in the front of the flight controller, as shown in the connection diagram below.

  1. Connect the telemetry, airspeed sensor, GPS, buzzer and safety switch as shown.

Flight Controller: Connect power module and external USB

The inputs for the USB port, power module and external USB are located on the right side of the flight controller.

  1. Connect power and USB as shown

TIP

The external USB is optional. It should be used if access to the USB port is difficult once the flight controller is mounted.

Install the pitot tube (airspeed sensor)

The pitot tube is installed on the front of the plane and connected to the airspeed sensor via a tube.

WARNING

It is important that nothing obstructs airflow to the Pitot tube. This is critical for fixed-wing flight and for transitioning from quad to plane.

  1. Install the Pitot tube in the front of the plane

  2. Secure the connecting tubing and ensure that it is not bent/kinked.

  3. Connect the tubes to the airspeed sensor.

Install/connect receiver and telemetry module

  1. Paste the receiver and telemetry module to the outside of the vehicle frame.

  2. Connect the receiver to the RC IN port on the back of the dropix, as shown above (also see the flight controller instructions).

  3. Connect the telemetry module to the front of the flight controller as shown below (see the flight controller instructions for more detail on the pins).

GPS/Compass module

The GPS/Compass module is already mounted on the wing, in the default orientation. You don't need to have to do anything extra for this!

Mount and orient the flight controller

  1. Set your flight controller orientation to 270 degrees.

  2. Secure the controller in place using vibration damping foam.

Step 4: Final Assembly Checks

The final assembly step is to check the vehicle is stable and that the motors have been set up correctly.

  1. Check that the motors turn in the correct directions (as in the QuadX diagram below).

    INFO

    If necessary the servo direction can be reversed using the Rev Range (for servos) checkbox associated with each servo output in the QGroundControl Actuator Output configuration (for servos only) (this sets the PWM_AUX_REV or PWM_AUX_MAIN parameter).

:::

  1. Check the vehicle is balanced around the expected centre of gravity
    • Hold the vehicle with your fingers at the center of gravity and check that the vehicle remains stable.

      Level Centre of Gravity

    • If the vehicle leans forward or backwards, move the motors to balance it.

      Level Motors

설정

Perform the normal Basic Configuration.

Notes:

  1. For Airframe select the vehicle group/type as Standard VTOL and the specific vehicle as Generic Standard VTOL as shown below.

    QCG - Select Generic Standard VTOL

  2. Set the Autopilot Orientation to ROTATION_YAW_270 as the autopilot is mounted sideways with respect to the front of the vehicle. The compass is oriented forward, so you can leave that at the default (ROTATION_NONE).

  3. Configure the outputs and geometry following the instructions in Actuators Configuration

  4. The default parameters are often sufficient for stable flight. For more detailed tuning information see Standard VTOL Wiring and Configuration.

After you finish calibration the VTOL is ready to fly.
