how are you doing. so when you step into the multi rotor industry your dealing with a really young and not very organized group. Alot of it from china so we gotta deal with the hand dealt. once you build it, fly it, crash it, rebuild, repeat, you figure em out.

basicaly you have arm bolts and motor bolts. you bolt it up. the pads on the board are powered when a battery is connected to any of teh pads, but you want to use the one near the dog ear on the frame then hook the esc power to the little ones by the legs. for everything else, reffer to the naza manual as to what prop spins what way and so on. it is super simple, we'll guide ya in, but after that the addiction is your problem. don't send your wife yellin this way when you wont come in

lets get it flying first, then we'll worry about anything extra. use the dji it's easier. naza has something called a controlled stick movement, that's shown in the manual to start the motors, i'd suggest using it to turn em off to via the software your gonna have to get installed and use for naza.

there are some great video online to help you out as well. one of my favorites is from patrick at aerial media pros. it is a 550 build - hexa not quad (same setup as you have just 2 more motors) but it is super informative and i bet it would help you. good luck and keep us informed.

Aerial Media Pros build video.
