Last updated 4 months ago

Tools needed - Torx 10 (T10)

Maintenance supplies needed - Threadlocker (medium strength)

Preparation

  1. Find a flat surface like a table big enough to fit the DeltaQuad Evo's fuselage.

  2. Take the fuselage of the DeltaQuad Evo out of the flight case.

  3. Put the fuselage on its landing gear on the table.

  4. Remove the hatch.

Changing the Pusher Motor Pod

  1. Remove the two top screws of the avionics bay hatch.

  1. Slightly lift the avionics bay and pull it forward.

  1. On the lower left side of the avionics bay, you will find the gray Pusher Motor Pod connector. Unplug the connector.

  1. There are two top screws and two bottom screws holding the Pusher Motor Pod in place.

  1. First, remove the two bottom screws.

  1. Remove the two top screws while supporting the Pusher Motor Pod with your other hand.

  1. Pull the Pusher Motor Pod slightly towards you and then down, away from the opening. Take the connector of the Pusher Motor Pod and guide the cable through the fuselage opening.

  1. Remove the Pusher Motor Holder (bracket).

  1. The Pusher Motor Holder sits inside the fuselage, securing, and aligning the Pusher Motor Pod. Install the new Pusher Motor Holder (bracket).

  1. The bracket has two mounting points which need to sit in their respective mounting holes and flush with the fuselage.

  1. For the installation of the Pusher Motor Pod, four screws are required: two short screws for the top of the Pusher Motor Pod and two long screws for the bottom.

  1. Ensure to apply threadlocker to the tip of each screw.

  1. To install the new Pusher Motor Pod, guide the cable of the Pusher Motor Pod through the fuselage opening.

  1. Align the front screw holes of the Pusher Motor Pod with those in the fuselage, as well as the screw holes of the Pusher Motor Holder.

  1. Insert and tighten the two short screws at the top of the Pusher Motor Pod.

  1. Insert and tighten the two long screws at the bottom of the Pusher Motor Pod.

  1. Connect the Pusher Motor Pod connectors and store the cable in the lower left corner of the fuselage.

  1. To install the avionics bay hatch, catch and align its clamps with the rear edge of the avionics bay. Follow step 2 in reverse order to achieve this.

  1. Close the avionics bay by tightening the two top screws. Please use threadlocker for these screws.

The Pusher Motor Pod is now installed. Ensure that it is securely aligned and properly set in place. Double-check that all screws are snug but not overtightened to avoid any damage.

If you should encounter problems during the installation process please contact [email protected] for further assistance.
