Hi, welcome to my blog. I'm building an FPV drone using the ZMR 250 build kit. My goal right now is to get a drone that flies. Eventually, I'd like to add a simple FPV camera and receiver, and maybe use the drone for photography. Follow my progress here!

Day 2: Soldering ESC wires to the motors


Today, I soldered the ESC (Electronic Speed Control) cables to the motors. Top left motor spins CW, Top right CCW, Bottom left CW, and Bottom right CCW. ESC cables link the motors to the power board and flight controller. Before connecting the wires, I verified motor type by checking that the unscrew direction of the motor "caps" matched the spin the direction. Finally, I used a servo tester to test connections without the receiver.
