FPV System Installation (Optional)

If you are operating this product in North America, you are required to have

an Amateur Radio (HAM) license. Visit www.arrl.org for more information.

Consult local laws and ordinances before operating FPV equipment.

In some areas, FPV operation may be limited or prohibited. You are

responsible for operating this product in a legal and responsible manner.

Items required for FPV installation and operation:

• FPV Camera Mount with Servo (EFL1812)

• FPV Camera (SPMVCM01)

• 150mW Video Transmitter (SPMVTM150) North America only

• 25mW Video Transmitter (SPMVTM025) European Union only

• Spektrum

™

4.3 inch Video Monitor with Headset (SPMVM430C) or suitable

headset or ground station

Installing the Optional FPV System

1. Remove the ﬂ ight battery from the aircraft.

2. Install the camera to the camera mount with double sided tape. The camera

should be installed so the wiring harness is at the top left side of the mount

as shown (a).

3. Peel the backing from the double stick tape of the FPV mount.

4. Attach the mount to the nose of the aircraft as shown (b), making sure the

mount is centered and level to the aircraft.

5. Connect the 4 pin/ 3-wire connector of the y-harness to the open terminal (c)

on the ﬂ ight control board.

6. Connect the 2-wire power connector of the y-harness to the video transmitter

power lead (d).

7. Connect the 3-wire extension to the terminal on the video transmitter (e).

8. Apply double-sided tape to the bottom of the video transmitter and slide it under

the ﬂ ight control board as shown (f). It should slide in far enough that about half

of the transmitter is under the ﬂ ight control board and the channel button and

LEDs are still visible. Do not force the transmitter any farther.

9. Determine whether you wish to route the wire leads internally or externally

around the fuselage and into the battery hatch.

If routing the wires internally, carefully drill a hole through the fuselage as

shown (g), large enough to accomodate the servo and camera connectors,

from the nose of the aircraft into the battery compartment.

10. Route the servo end of the y-harness and the camera extension from the

battery compartment to the FPV mount.

11. Connect the servo lead to the y-harness connector.

12. Connect the camera lead to the 3-wire extension. Leave enough slack in the

wire extension at the nose so the camera mount can pivot through its full

range of travel without binding.
