Cityflitzer DIY Manual

In This Manual we will walk you through the whole building process of the Cityflitzer drone.

Keep in mind that this is not a toy, fly responsibly and take the needed safety precautions. Never have props installed and always use a smokestopper when working at the bench.

Mount the TPU Battery pads with M2 Washers and M2x8mm screws. Make shure the thread inserts on the top plate are facing down.

Flip the top plate over and mount the arms as shown above.

Screw on the Middle plate and install the TPU RX Antenna mount and the TPU VTX Antenna mount with M2x8mm screws. also push in M2x20mm Standoffs into the designated horizontal holes.

Screw the motors on with loctite and tape the motorwires firmly to the arms.

Prepare the capacitor by cutting the legs to about 2mm and solder wires to the arms. Then apply liquid rubber to the exposed solderjoints.

First apply conformal coating to the bottom of the fc and let it dry. Then mount the FC to the frame with M2x12mm Screws. Then solder all the motor wires and the main powerwires aswell as the capcitator to the top side of the fc. Make shure to have some slack in the motorwires so they are not under tension. Also make shure the capacitor wires are the right length and the capacitor fits into the TPU Bottom cover with a bit of wire slack. Tip: Conductive coating is visible under UV Light.

For this step also assemble the Sideplates and TPU bottom cover with M2x20mm Standoffs and M2x4mm Screws. Dont fully mount it to the frame yet, just use it to meashure wire length.

Prepare the receiver (RX) By soldering the wires to it with about 4cm of wire length. Then install the RX Antenna with a slight bend in it so the bind button stays accessible and heatshrink the whole thing.

Mount the DJI O4/O3 Air unit (VTX) on the TPU VTX mount with M2x4mm Screws. Then screw it on top of the FC.

Open up the VTX to carefully remove the UFL connectors and mount the VTX Antennas in the TPU VTX antenna mount and reconnect the antennas to the VTX. Then close the VTX again.

Connect the VTX to the FC.

Connect the Receiver to the fv and mount the RX Antenna in the TPU RX antenna mount.

Now install the pod to the frame with M2x4mm screws. Install the capacitor and RX to the TPU mounts.

Install the VTX Camera with M2x4mm screws.

Install the fitting TPU Battery Mount to the top plate with M2 Washers and M2x10mm Screws.

Prepare the XT30 Male Connector by soldering the XT30 PCB Board.

Stick the XT30 connector to into the TPU Battery mount and cut the power wires to length. They should not be under tension but also not too loose. Then strip the insulation at the ends and pretin the ends.

Solder the wires to the connector. Then screw the mount down with M2x8mm Screws. Then apply liquid rubber on the exposed solderjoints.
