Introduction

  • Armor 90 is the indoor FPV racing drone, which is also the multi-function quadcopter by using in the racing competition, aerobatic flight, and competitive activity alive.
  • Tank-shape appearance combined with the carbon fiber material, also the aesthetic design combined with Engineering design make the compact-stucture, low-resistantce; light and high-hardness Armor90. The tank-shape canopy can protect the video transmitter and camera very well in flight.
  • Brand-new design concept and high-performance F4 Flight controller system intergrated with OSD function, by default, flash the Betaflight firmware.
  • Brand-new design concept and high-performance F4 Flight controller systerm integrated: with OSD function, which support original Betaflight OMINIBUS firmware.
  • The brand-new mini version 4 in 1 ESC supports Oneshot/Dshot signal and forms a tank-shape structure perfectly combined with the flight controller.
  • The 25mW camera and video transmitter transmission system, wide dynamic high-definition camera with wide angle,40CH frequency for your choice.
  • The brushless power systerm provides the sufficient powers which can experience the first persion view as soon as you get the quadcopter.

Receiver Bind

Frsky XM Receiver Binding Process

  1. Turn on the receiver while holding the F/S button on the module and then release the switch button. The flashed red LED indicates the the receiver is on the binding process.
  2. Turn on the remote controller and enter into the D16 mode for binding, the flash LED on the receiver indicates the binding has finished successuflly.
  3. Restart the remote controller and receiver.The light-up green LED indicates that the receiver is receiving the signals from the remote controller. It is unnecessary to repeat the binding steps unless one of them was replaced.
  4. Configurate the communication mode correctly in Betaflight Configurator, and check the channel mapping.

AC900 Receiver Binding Process:

  1. The detail can be found in the instruction of AC900 tri-mode RSSI receiver. To check the color of the indicator at its first flash before binding, in red: S-FHSS, in green: D16 non-EU, in yellow: D16EU-LBT
  2. After Binding, configurate the communication mode correctly in Betaflight Configurator, and check the channel mapping

MKF-6A Receiver Binding Process:
By default,it has been binded already, please follow these steps if re-bind is needed:

  1. Press the module’s power switch while turn on the receiver, and the green LED flash slowly, which means it is in biding mode.
  2. Power on the controller and switch to the binding mode, the green LED indicator will on if bind successfully.
  3. After the first binding, when restart the transmitter and receiver, they will bind automatically. It is unnecessary to repeat the binding steps unless one of them was replaced.

AIO FPV Camera

The 25mW/40CH AIO camera in Armor 90 is characterized by wide dynamic high- definition, wide angle and no delay. The light and mini AIO camera supports button and frequency choice as well as NTSC/PAL TV system. The LED will show video transmiter frequency,8 LEDS indicates the signal channel,5 LEDs indicates the frequencey, the specific frequency will base on the video trasnmitter frequency chart.

Reference schematic:
Long press 2 seconds to switch image transmission frequency group. Short press 1 second to adjust the channel corresponding to the current frequency group. Complete the selection it will automatically configure the current frequency and frequency groups.

CHARGING INSTRUCTIONS

Introduction of battery wire 2PIN (two wires) are output wire of dynamical power.3PIN(three wires) are balance terminals for charging of dynamical power. Please connect the dynamical power output wire to connector of aircraft power supply when use and please connect charging balance terminal to charger when charging by charger.

Guidance of charging operation:
Armor 90 is equipped with a USB specialized balance charger with lithium battery. The USB terminal can connect phone charger or compute USB interface, the other connects terminal of lipo balancing head. The red light is the indicator light of the power and the green one is the indicator light for charging state. The power plug has a normal contact if the red light is always on, the slow flash of the green refers to charging. If the green is always on, which means completion of charging.
