Installing radio receiver

Any small radio receiver will fit on the designated bottom area of the frame. It must be smaller than 50 x 23 x

6 mm - a FrSky XSR receiver is used in this example. There is a free servo cable that connects to the flight

controller. Note that carbon fiber blocks radio signals and the antenna has to go outside the body.

1. Prepare the receiver connector cable so that it can connect to the provided servo connector or

re-solder the cable to suite your particular receiver cable. There is also a solder port on the COLIBRI

for direct connection. It is recommended to use SBUS where available for lower latency and best

resolution/precision.

2. Position the receiver with the antenna leads facing the underside of the battery connector and

connect up the signal cable to the frame

3. Using a thin screwdriver, move or reposition the existing wires passing by the two antenna holes that

goes to the top side

4. Feed the antenna coax cables through the holes and use tape to secure the receiver to the frame
