2 Assemble propeller adapters

Select the propeller adapters and

the longer screws provided with the

adapters. Do not use the x-shaped

plate. Apply threadlocker to the three

small screws included with the

propeller adapters (less than one

drop covering four to five threads).

Attach an adapter to the top of each

motor.

3 Add propellers

Your Quad uses SF and SFP

propellers. These propellers are

labelled on the package and on the

propeller itself. Add SF and SFP

propellers to the arms shown in the

diagram below with the writing on

the propeller facing towards the sky.

The right propeller order and

orientation is critical for your

copter to fly correctly. Add the

washer above the propeller, and

secure the nut tightly on top.

Ensure that the writing on the propellers faces the

sky.
