Which Way Am I Facing?
In Figure 2-8, plate B is pointing away from the camera and
right side up. That is to say, the front of the drone—and this sin-
gle plate—is the end at the top of Figure 2-8. There are two
clear indicators that tell us this: first, the short standos are
pointing up; second, the arched boom mount holes (more on
those in a minute) are swiveling toward the back of the aircraft.
You can also identify the front of the frame because it has
longer (or wider, depending on how you look at it) arched boom
holes. Keep these indicators in mind as you move through the
build.
DroneKraft Mach300
If you are building out a Mach300, your kit will come
with rubber
standos very similar to those shown in
Figure 2-6 and should provide a comfortable level of
vibration isolation for your flight controller.
Step 2: Complete the Dirty Frame
Assembly
Complete the bottom portion, or dirty frame assembly, by
attaching the four booms (plates C in Figure 2-3) and bottom
dirty frame plate (plate A) to your top frame plate. When you are
finished, it will look like Figure 2-9.
