ELEV-8 v3 Quadcopter Assembly Guide
Congratulations and thank you for purchasing a Parallax ELEV-8 v3 Quadcopter [1], designed and manufactured in
California, USA. If you require assistance, please do not hesitate to e-mail or call us
[2].
These instructions are for the Parallax ELEV-8 v3 Quadcopter
[1]
(#80300) in its standard configuration. (If you have the
ELEV-8 v2 [3], go to the v2 Assembly Guide [4] instead.) To work offline or from paper, Click on the "Printer-Friendly
Version" link at the bottom-right corner of this page (it may take several minutes to load). Be advised it's around 100
pages when printed.
If you have an ELEV-8 Quadcopter you must register it with the Federal Aviation
Administration's UAS Registry [5] before flying outdoors.
Preparation
This guide will take you through assembly and configuration of your ELEV-8 v3 Quadcopter Kit. But first, go through
the Preparation list below.
Please do not rush through the assembly and testing process! Go slowly and don't
skip anything, to avoid a dysfunctional quadcopter and extensive troubleshooting.
It never hurts to double-check your work at each step!
