Step 10
Attach four #6-32 x 5/8" machine
screws with washers to the underside
of the components platform as shown
in Figure 13.
Secure with washers and #6-32
hex nuts. Add a drop of thread lock
and tighten these nuts. Note that the
outer four holes near the center of
the platform are used. These screws
will be used next month to secure
your controller mount.
Step 11
Slip the component platform over
the four machine screws shown in
Figure 14. Secure with washers and
#6-32 hex nuts. Finger tighten only.
You’ll be removing this platform later.

Conclusion
Your frame is now complete; see Figure 15.
Next month, we will connect the motors and set their
direction. We will program the ESCs and install a NAZA
flight controller. Once the ESCs
are properly set up, we will
install the props. Here are some
things you will need to have on
hand next month:
Servo Tester
In order to test the direction
of the motors and program the
throttle range, you will need a
servo tester like the one shown
in Figure 16.
