This particular servo tester works
very well.

ESC Programming Card
When you ordered your ESCs,
you should have ordered the proper
programming card for them. If not,
you need to order one now. These a
re very popular and HobbyKing is
frequently out of stock.
The card shown in Figure 17 is
used to program the Plush ESCs; the
card shown in Figure 18 is used to
program the Multistar ESCs.
Note that you can program the
ESCs manually using your transmitter;
however, it's not easy and I won't be
covering manual programming in
these articles. Some functionality may
not be available when programming
manually.

Final Thoughts
Radio and Batteries
You will need to have your radio,
battery, and charger on hand. These
were discussed last month.
If you have any questions about
the parts required to build the Kronos
Flyer, please visit the Kronos website

NAZA Flight Controller
Next month, I will be covering
the installation of the NAZA flight
controller. The NAZA flight controller
has an optional GPS unit available.
I will talk a little about this upgrade
in the final article in this series.
You can mount the NAZA directly
to the component platform of the
Kronos Flyer. However, if you decide
that you want to build other craft,
you may want to move your NAZA
from craft to craft.
To make this easy, I have come up
with what I call the "Universal NAZA
Mount" shown in Figure 19. The
UNM is a set of mini platforms that
hold the NAZA, VU, GPS, and your
radio receiver. By having all these
items mounted in one place, it makes
it very easy to move the NAZA from
