PART 02: INSTALLING THE MOTORS
Build Mambo
Step 1: Motor Placement
Place the airframe and [4] motors, [2][A] & [2][C], in the open workspace. The [A] motors are identified by [WHITE] wires, the [C] motors are identified by [RED] wires. Make sure to identify the front of the drone before installing the motors.
Step 2: Motor Installation
If the feet are not attached to the central body, thread the motor wire through the opening and push the motor gently into the motor slot leaving approximately ½” of the motor exposed.
Step 3: Attach Feet
Now is a good time to attach the feet. Attach the feet by first sliding the top notch of the foot over the top tab. Gently push down on the center of the foot, towards the bottom tab. Slide the bottom notch over the bottom tab.
Airfoil
A body (such as an airplane wing or propeller blade) designed to provide a desired reaction force when in motion relative to the surrounding air
Airframe
The Airframe is the main body of the drone that every other component attaches to
Anti-Clockwise [A]
Anti-Clockwise (or Counter Clockwise) [A] motion is one that proceeds in the opposite direction as a clock's hands
Battery
Energy source used to supply power to the drone
Clockwise [C]
Clockwise [C] motion is one that proceeds in the same direction as a clock's hands
Firmware
Firmware is permanent software programmed into a read-only memory
Gimbal
The mechanism that allows for different position of the camera on the drone
Micro-USB
a miniaturized version of the Universal Serial Bus interface which enables the direct charging of the drone's battery
Motor
A motor is powered by electricity that supplies motive power for moving parts
PCB
A Printed Circuit Board is a board design with a base board and copper traces to maintain connectivity between electronic components such as LED's, integrated circuits, and resistors for your devices
Propeller Twist
A differece in angle between the blade at its tip, and at the point where it meets the propller hub
Propellers
Mechanical device for propelling an aircraft or boat, consisting of a revolving shaft with two or more broad, angled blades attached to it
