Product Usage Instructions
- Connect the Flight Controller to a power source using the 6.8~30V DC IN (2~6S LiPo) input.
- Use the Dual Camera Inputs switch to select between two camera sources.
- If using a VTX, use the 9V(12V) for VTX power switch to turn it on and off.
- Connect your receiver to the ESP WiFi Telemetry or ExpressLRS 2.4G receiver using the appropriate protocol.
- Connect your USB device to the USB/Beep Extender with Type-C(USB2.0) port for data transfer.
- If using ArduPilot, configure the Flight Controller using the MatekF405-TE software. If using INAV, configure using the MATEKF405TE_SD software.
