contained within this document.

If you are unsure what you are doing get advice from someone who does.

Multirotor helicopters are dangerous. Operate them away from people and property. Be

responsible. If in doubt do not fly.

It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure this model is assembled and fitted out correctly and safely.

Ensure that your model is capable of safely and reliably lifting the payload you are asking it to. This

model is dangerous if used in an incorrect manner. Ensure you seek assistance from an experienced

flyer if you are unsure. Do not fly near people, property or highways. Do not fly over people,

property or highways.

There may be laws and regulations governing the use of this model in your area, seek advice from

your authorities if you are unsure.

Planning your build and installation is key to building a safe and reliable multi rotor. Make sure all

wiring is of the correct gauge, properly connected, neat and protected from wear/tear and

radio/electrical interference. Make sure all the components you use are suitable for the size and

weight of your multi rotor.

Do not over tighten screws.

Check this product for damaged hardware, loose joints, missing parts or sharp edges before and

after assembly and frequently during use. Do not use unless all components are correctly fitted and

adjusted. Do not use if any parts are missing, damaged or broken.

Assembly is required. Take care when unpacking and assembling; contains small parts and sharp

edges.

Carbon fibre is electrically conductive, it is important that all the electrical connectors which are

contained within the carbon fibre body tube are properly shielded with heat shrink. This is to

prevent electrical shorting. If you are assembling the ESC yourself ensure it is soldered and

assembled properly according to the instructions in this manual before using it.

If you have any queries or questions about this product please contact us.

ESC Module Assembly

Step 1: Preparing the ESCs

Parts Needed: 4 x EMAX 12A SimonK ESC

Recommended Tools: Soldering Iron, solder, de-solder pump & helping hands clamp.

1. Cut away the heat shrink with a knife. Be careful not to cut or damage any wires or

components when doing this.

2. With a soldering iron carefully remove the 2 supply cables and capacitor.

NOTE: Make a note of which pin of the capacitor is neg(-) before removal.

3. Remove as much solder as possible from the 2 solder pads. This will make it easier to attach

them to the Power Distribution PCB.

Page 7

Hornet 250 Assembly Manual V1.0

Step 2: Assembling the ESC Cluster

Parts Needed: Bulkhead E PCB, 4 x EMAX 12A SimonK ESC (from previous step), Silicone Wire, power

connector.

Recommended Tools: Soldering Iron, solder, de-solder pump & helping hands clamp.

1. Solder the copper via pins that connect both sides of the PCB. Make sure you apply plenty of

heat so the soldering is secure. The copper on the PCB is very thick so will need at least a 25watt

soldering iron.

2. Turn the PCB over and solder the via pins

3. Solder the main power cables (not supplied). These are the cables that you will connect your

battery to.

Page 8

Hornet 250 Assembly Manual V1.0

4. Solder the Auxiliary power cable (not supplied). This is used to power the FPV Cameras, FPV TX

etc. Note that this outlet is supplied directly from the flight battery. You need to check that the

voltages are suitable for your auxiliary components, if they are not you may need to use a

voltage stepdown regulator.

5. Insert the first ESC into its slot in the PCB board, it is orientated as pictured below. You may need

to enlarge the slots slightly with a thin file.

Page 9

Hornet 250 Assembly Manual V1.0

6. Solder the ESC to the PCB board. Make sure you get a good fillet of solder that is cleanly adhered

to the copper pads on the ESC and the Hornet PCB.

7. Repeat steps 6 & 7 with the other 3 ESCs.

8. Using some pliers carefully bend the pins of one of the capacitors like below. Note that the

capacitors will be marked to indicate the pos(+) and neg(-) connections. On the capacitors shown

here the neg(–) connector is marked by the gold stripe and green (–) symbols. You need to bend

the pins of the capacitors so that they match up with the solder pads on the PCB which are

marked, e.g. C1(-) being the pad for the neg(-) connection.
