Figure 4-7. Our ESC leads route nicely from the dirty frame up
through a hole in the back of the clean frame, giving them easy
access to the output ports on the APM (note that the top clean
frame plate was removed so we could get a better photo—it is
not required to do this).
If you are using a
flight controller other than the
APM, check your instruction manual for the proper
motor output sequence. APMs always start with out-
put 1 and count up depending on how many motors
your drone uses. A hexacopter always uses outputs
1–6, while an Octocopter always uses outputs 1–8.
