Unlike similar offerings, the FC requires no soldering, and uses reliable, lockable JST-GH connectors for connections to other parts of the drone.
Mounting Options
The FC ships with soft silicone rubber ‘gummies’ that should be used to mount the FC onto the ‘stack’.
These gummies not only reduce sensor noise caused by props, but also play an important role in protecting the delicate sensors from extreme shock.
If the FC is mounted atop the Orqa 3030 ESC, it is recommended to hard-mount the ESC on the supplied mounting hardware, and mount the FC on top of it using the gummies.
Voltage and Current Sensor
Betaflight, and all other flight controller firmware platforms require calibration of the battery voltage, and current sensors.
These values depend primarily on the ESC used. If the Orqa 3030 ESC is used, the default values programmed will be correct.
If a different ESC is used, there are several online guides explaining how to calibrate voltage, and current.

Bought these to build a 7in 8S quad. The low kv is perfect for keeping the tip speed under Mach. These appear to be rebranded Emax EcoII, so decent quality. This quad is so powerful on 8S it's just silly. Happy Camper!
Good flier, handles the abuse a new flier like me has put it through
First prebuild from NBD. I swapped out the tracer RX for crossfire, initially had a no gyro flag on the AIO but was able to get it sorted with NBD support. Flying it is a good time and it’s held up well to some decent crashes. So far only thing(s) I’ve needed to replace has been a propeller and a M3x20 standoff. Took me too long to notice but the 2 aluminum pieces are for taking the O3 air unit from 25x25 mounting and making it 20x20.
