PNF (or "PNP") versions include motor, propeller and electronic speed controller. The "kit" version does not include these components, which must be purchased separately.

Electronic Speed Controller (ESC)

One of these (any small (>=12A) ESC will do):

• Turnigy 20A Brushed ESC ESC (Hobbyking)
• Lumenier Regler 30A BLHeli_S ESC OPTO (GetFPV)

Autopilot and Essential Components

Wiring

Wire the servos and motors as shown. Use the MAIN outputs (not the ones labeled with AUX). The motor controller needs to have an in-built BEC, as the autopilot is not powering the servo rail.

Port	Connection
RC IN	PPM or S.BUS / S.BUS2 input
MAIN 1	Left Aileron
MAIN 2	Right Aileron
MAIN 3	Empty
