4.2 Motor Installation (if purchased separately)

If you have purchased the EDF unit and motor separately, or need to re-install the motor:

1. Align the motor with the EDF housing. Ensure the motor shaft passes through the center of the fan.
2. Secure the motor to the EDF housing using appropriate screws. Do not overtighten.
3. Verify that the fan blades rotate freely without any obstruction or rubbing against the duct walls.

4.3 Sambungan Listrik

1. Connect the three motor wires to your 120A brushless ESC (Electronic Speed Controller). The motor uses 4mm banana plugs.
2. Ensure proper polarity and secure connections. Incorrect wiring can damage the motor or ESC.
3. Connect the ESC to your 8S 29.6V 5500mAh 45C LiPo battery.
4. Connect the ESC's signal wire to the throttle channel of your RC receiver.

4.4 Mounting in Aircraft

The FMS 90mm EDF unit is designed to fit most 90mm airframes. Use the provided mounting tabs and screws to securely fasten the EDF unit within your aircraft's fuselage. Refer to the dimensional diagram in Section 3.1 for precise mounting hole spacing.

5. Parentah Operasi

5.1 Pamariksaan Sateuacan Penerbangan

1. Ensure all connections (motor to ESC, ESC to battery, ESC to receiver) are secure.
2. Check that the EDF unit is firmly mounted in the aircraft.
3. Verify that the fan blades are free from debris and rotate smoothly.
4. Perform a radio range check and ensure all control surfaces are functioning correctly.
5. Confirm battery is fully charged and in good condition.

5.2 Initial Power-Up and Throttle Calibration

1. With the propeller removed (if applicable) or ensuring no obstructions near the EDF intake/exhaust, connect the battery.
2. Follow your ESC's instructions for throttle range calibration. This typically involves powering on the transmitter with full throttle, then connecting the battery, waiting for beeps, moving throttle to zero, and waiting for confirmation beeps.
3. Slowly advance the throttle to ensure the motor spins up smoothly and in the correct direction for thrust. If the direction is incorrect, swap any two of the three motor-to-ESC wires.

5.3 Operasi Aman

• Always operate the EDF unit in a well-ventilated area.
• Keep fingers, loose clothing, and foreign objects away from the intake and exhaust of the EDF unit at all times. The fan blades spin at extremely high RPMs and can cause severe injury.
• Monitor motor and ESC temperatures during operation. Excessive heat can indicate an issue.
• Do not exceed the recommended 8S battery voltage.

6. Pangropéa

6.1 Inspeksi Umum

• After each flight, inspect the EDF unit for any signs of damage, especially to the fan blades and housing.
• Check all mounting screws for tightness.
• Pastikeun sadaya sambungan listrik tetep aman.

6.2 beberesih

• Keep the EDF intake and exhaust clear of dirt, dust, and debris.
• Use a soft brush or compressed air to gently clean the fan blades and inside the duct. Avoid using liquids directly on the motor or electronics.

6.3 Perawatan Bantalan

• The motor features ceramic NMB sealed bearings, which are designed for durability and low maintenance.
• If you notice any unusual noise or increased friction from the motor, the bearings may need inspection or replacement. Consult a qualified technician for bearing service.

8. Tips pamaké

• Pilihan batré: Always use high-quality 8S LiPo batteries with a C-rating of 45C or higher to ensure the EDF unit receives sufficient current for optimal performance and to prevent battery sag.
• ESC Pairing: A 120A brushless ESC is recommended. Ensure your ESC has good cooling and is rated for 8S operation. Proper ESC programming (timing, braking) can also enhance performance and efficiency.
• Airframe Integration: When installing the EDF, ensure the intake and exhaust ducts in your airframe are as smooth and unobstructed as possible. Any turbulence or restriction will reduce thrust and efficiency.
• Kasaimbangan dinamis: While the blades are factory balanced, minor impacts can affect this. If you experience unusual vibrations, carefully inspect the blades for damage or consider re-balancing if you have the necessary tools and expertise.
• Manajemén termal: Even with the motor's self-cooling design, ensure your aircraft provides adequate airflow around the motor and ESC, especially during prolonged high-power operation.
